Paxton Novi 2000 in a f-body??? anybody ever do it? looks like it would fit with ease, right? filter in the battery n so on...so many custom builds n i just wonderd why nobody has done it? move the radiator and theres evin more room...
Prochargers are badass but you cant see them on a f body, and for sombody looking for looks sound and performance this seems like a duh

My friend has one on a stock cube (281) forged 2valve mustang, to me I dont think it would do the ls1 justice, he had to really pulley the crap out of it and overdrive the crank to get it to make power on his car.
Given it does make about 750 on race gas and I/C spray bar, but it took a lot to get it over the "break" point for boost and I think its really inefficient in the lower boost numbers that most f-body guys run.

Fastest stock bottom LS1 Vette 9.82 @ 138 = ECS Paxton Novi2000
Fastest stock bottom LS6 Vette 9.80 @ 142 = ECS Paxton Novi2000
Fastest stock bottom LS2 Vette 9.73 @ 143 = ECS Paxton Novi 2200
I believe it is also a tenth away from fastest stock bottom LS3 as well. Still think Paxton's cant do justice to an LS motor???
original poster, the Vette kit would hit the radiator support on an F-body with a Vette kit on it, which is why they are mounted underneath.

I don't know 800 at the wheels with meth on a stock headed forged LS6 (with a novi 2000) seems somewhat effective to me...
537/515 on an otherwise stock 6.0 in my 2500 suburban isn't too shabby with a novi 1500 either.
