Nice! Now get to work!

yukon988 11-28-2006 10:35 PM

Maybe you ought to test fit it on my car before you put it on yours.

SHAKERATTLEROLL 11-28-2006 11:08 PM

What are you going to put it on?

You might just have a helper on a weekend. :)

Well at least we all can see that he has a professional work table. :) But I missed the home brew in the jelly mug lol. :) Just ribbing you man :)

I'm envious!!! Be sure to take pics ad document as you go ;) I was just looking at those this past week, what supercharger model do you go with? Do you plan to mount the SC on the drivers or passenger side of the engine? Or you modifying your carb or do you have a SC version carb?

DR.Jay 11-29-2006 07:28 AM

So were you able to get the kit configured with the compressor mounted the way you wanted it? I'm willing to lend a hand If you need the help just send me a PM.

I have the Procharger D1-SC blow-through kit, only available for drivers side mount. I will modify my existing Holley 750 d.p.'er. I will document it as I go. Should be interesting, to say the least. I might take you up on your offer Dr.Jay, 4 hands work faster than 2.:D

DR.Jay 11-29-2006 09:24 AM

Just let me know. My weekend schuedal is open for all of next month at this time, and I might be able to swing some evenings.

I would love to. I would like to do a supercharger project. If you lived closer I would let you move into the shop while under going this swap.
:lurk: :lurk: :lurk: :lurk: :lurk: :lurk: :lurk: :lurk:
Please do a running post on the swap. If the cops ever take away my 8-71 blower I might have to go this route.
Once you've been blown nothing else will do:lol: :lol:

Agreed, norval....I am going for the "stealth" approach...something you are wayyyy past.:rofl: I will document, as I have not seen any C-3's with an inter-cooled centrigual unit under the hood.

SmokedTires 11-29-2006 11:12 AM

This a really nice compressor you chose, I'll be watching this build for sure :cheers:

This would require the cops to catch you...and I'm sure they would give up once they lose visual.

Probably a stupid question...but where does the alternator go?

big_G 12-08-2006 09:54 AM

I will relocate it to the passenger side. Also just received this morning my V/B tubular upper A-arms which are necessary in order to lower the blower sufficiently so the hood will close. Right now the blower is resting on the stock A-arms. Details, details.:willy:
