Default Brackets for Vortech on L98

I have an 86 vette and a Vortech V1 from an LT1 setup (clockwise rotation). I was wondering where I could buy a mounting bracket for this blower? Or do I need to fabricate my own?

That's not a Corvette LT1 then?

Talk to BlowerWorks.

I'm good at leaving out details. The kit is from an LT1 F-body setup. I got a good deal on it from a friend who sold his Trans-Am.

I would like to sell the kit and go with a turbo setup, but if it doesn't sell I'm going to install it this winter.

I see a lot of Vortech blowers installed on L98's. Wondering what people in general are doing for brackets. I'll give blower works a ring.

Thanks.

Got my V2 off of an LT-1 kit. Greg hooked me up with the brackets, among MANY other things!

It's only one bracket, but you'll need the piping as well. Plus, if it came off the LT-1, you'll probably need a new pulley (maybe not the colet). I know mine did for alignment issues. Also, do you have all of the extra stuff you'll need? (filter, injectors or FMU, fuel pump [highly recommend]). Naturally, how much extra stuff you'll need is dependant on what you're wanting, or expecting, out of the setup.

If you go to the blowerworks websit, you can download Greg's .pdf catalog. Or, drop him an email at:
