I've been thinking about possibly procharging my f-body, I think I can get a good deal on an ls7. If I did this I'd want an F1-something head unit but I wanted to know who's running one?
What bracket are you using?
What pulleys?
What's your intake/filter setup?
What's your engine setup and how much power are you making?

Thanks.

personally i would not go with the ls7 block. its a great NA setup. you can get 600+ at the wheels with it. but its said that its rather brittle and the cylinder walls are thinner which is why typically boosted setups are 370-408. not to say people have not done it. I just look at the big picture. Grab an ls2 block or lq9/lq4 off of classifieds. there is an lq9 block on there now already prepped and machined waiting for assembly. guy prob spent more on the machining that he is asking for the block.

What are you doing for an intake hat?

The block is irrelevant at this point if the F1 head unit won't work near it's potential anyways, if the block needs to be addressed later than it will but I really want to find out if we can effectively use F1 head units in these cars.

Good info, thanks for the feedback. Any pics of the poor mans belt wrap setup?
Did you have to modify the radiator support for the intake?
What intercooler are you running?

I dont have any pics but there are tons of pics on this forum I did mine exactly the way it said in the right up. I did have to cut a little of the radiator support for the inlet hat but not much and Im running the Procharger fmic for a fbody. jeff
