Default Clockwise or CounterClockwise Supercharger?

I"m looking at buying a supercharger and don't know which to get, should i be looking at clockwise rotation or counterclockwise? Or does it matter with the rotation? It's a vortech V-1 S trim.

You want a clockwise unit, the counter clockwise are mounted "backwards" and you'll have big difficulties mounting it if you could at all.

Is that clockwise as you're looking at the engine from the front of car, or clockwise as you are looking at the engine from the driver's seat?
