Default LSX Pontiac G-8 Magnuson Supercharger

So, I have LSX engine (L92 heads) build in a 55 bel-air and plan on running a Magnuson supercharger. I was informed today that no kit to accommodate the L-92 heads exist and that I would need to install the Pontiac G-8 kit and have the intake ports ported to match the cathedral L-92 ports. Does anyone have this setup?

Also, mentioned that I would require the drive kit (bracket location) from the same Pontiac to make sure minimal alterations are needed. Has anyone done this either?

Your information is incorrect. Magnacharger released a kit about a month ago for the L92 heads. It is a TVS1900 kit. They have not released the 2300kit yet but I believe it is in the works. I don't know how much power you are trying to achieve but the 1900 with L92 heads can achieve 800hp. I am just getting ready to dyno a new forged 408 with ported LS2 heads, we hope to achieve 700+hp. I will post results hopefully by this weekend.

I'll be re-checking what they communicated as there is certainly some confusion. Thanks for the feedback

Fish, it appears you are correct. The TVS 1900 (G5) kit does fit on the L92 heads per Dave at Magnuson. Thanks.
