Default New ECS ProCharger bracket installed (Pics inside)

Fellow Florida Peeps, recently made the drive down to Vero Beach to see the deranged sociopaths at England Green who share my speed addiction but obvioulsy not my poor coordination and paltry skills with power tools.

Out with the old bracket, and in with the new!

Old setup:

New ECS setup:






Side-by-side:
(Old on the left, ECS on the right, notice the thickness)



Next up, beefed up tranny, converter, rear, and brace. Time to leave the streets behind and learn the art of the 1/4 mile.

What was the problem with the old bracket? Did it just cause too much belt slippage?

Yes, as well as a partially shredded belt early on. Had to have the bracket machined slighlty and run a gatorback belt.

Everything's fine except the broken tranny.

Just sitting in the garage for a while.
