Default question for Brian Cunningham

Sir
You posted a pix:

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c4-f...e-blowers.html

This is of a c4 with a 142 or 144 supercharger. Do you have any more info on that car. any pix or links. I am particularrly interested in the hood mods done.
I am setting here looking at my (new to me) 142, and I have an l83 that it will go on weather it likes it or not.
thanks

Looks like the unit B&M made with their custom fuel injection. Magazines shot it down for drivability problems.

Yes I agree that the FI is antiquated. I have procured a 4150 holley which comes from holley set up specifically for supercharger applications. I know that this wont fit under my hood, and the devil is always in the details. I was at least hoping for some more pix to see what was moved around in the engine compartment.
