Supercharged C7
Dropped our car off at Hennessey this morning. Will officially be the first Supercharged Hennessey C7 in the world! Ran a baseline dyno, and was 416whp and 415 torque....let's see where it goes from here!

Yes, they had to do some research since had not done one before, but they came back, and extended the same warranty as the roots style. Dave Golder, the GM at Hennessey is very keen to see the results of this install. He told me today that several of his customers are getting frustrated waiting on the Edlebrock unit. There were 12 C7's sitting in their lot all waiting for the Edelbrock...crazy.

That is awesome! I wish they were closer to me. Traveling to have a supercharged C7 WITH a warranty may be worth it though. I still have some time.

Because Edelbrock has promised 3 times in the last month they would be ready...most all of these cars have been shipped from out of state. I got tired of waiting, and went another direction, and is easier for me since I am local.

Oh well. Doesn't sound like you have to deal with that.

No, but was a part of listening to Edelbrock's constant delay's...they are very interested to see how this install goes. Could be another blower option on their packages if all goes well...I was the first in line for their supercharged package putting my deposit with them 5-6 months ago. They were originally supposed to be shipping units the first of November.
