Is that an Eaton or Whipple twin-screw blower ? Looks too short to be an Eaton.

After poking around, I'm pretty sure that's a Whipple installed backwards to minimize intake manifolding. There must be a shaft on the right side for the power takeoff, like a Magnacharger set-up. Whipple Twin-screws are much better blowers than the Eaton Roots blowers used on the ZR1 - more efficient. That means 1/2 the power takeoff and 1/2 the temperature rise in the charge for the same pressure ratio. This thing is gonna be a monster !! I'd guess 650-700 HP, easy !!

Oh dear!!! That was fast! Much faster than I would have expected. I would have figured we would be waiting months to see this kind of progress. I cant wait to see the final numbers!

That said, is that thing actually bolted down or is it just sitting on an aluminum plate on top of the block?

Actions speaks louder than words.

I wonder if Callaway has started. I know the project is named C20.

Callaway Cars started development, some time ago. We were the first to supercharge the new Direct Injection V8 engines, and have had our supercharged package under development for some time.

In fact, we have a host of products under development for the new Stingray coming soon...
