The setup look's great. But what about the crank snout??? Are you going to support it also?

What supercharger are you using? how much wear did you see on the bearings?

Talking crank flexing

The supercharger is a vortec ysi unit.The bearings on inspection , i can see the crank is riding on outers off bearings you can see where metal is slightly more polished and shinier . engine is making approximately 950 - 1000 rwhp through 4l80e auto. this engine was at initial engine tuning stages after several road tests my tuner crashed car so the engine came out and we fully checked engine and re machined and assembled engine , thats when i noticed . also we changed the top ring because the other looked like it was microfusing to bore. we still havent fired the new engine up , but i am once again excited

Ok i remember talking to you before i think. you have a very nice GTO. Im copying a few of your ideas but using a f1c procharger. Im a little worried about the crank bearings which was why im asking. very nice set up. What are you doing to the rear end for traction and to handle the power ?

Looks awesome! I'm guessing with a blower pulley that small and a crank pulley that big, you are going to make more than 20psi.
