Anyone know of a roots type supercharger for an LT1 that fits under the hood?

That's a shame, the C5's have one from eaton. I guess it's time to move up. I hate the thought of giving up my rattles, I just got used to them.

I'm pretty sure even the C5 has to change the hood to run a roots type supercharger.

I haven't seen a C5 with an eaton type blower that didn't have a new hood.

Hood change required to fit Maggie (or other roots type blowers) on C5.
