I just bought a forged pistion/rod engine from thompson motorsports today. They use a 4.8 or 5.3 engine and bore to 5.7 liter. So I was wondering what needs to be done to mount the procharger head unit to one of these blocks? Any info is appreciated. Thanks!

Only thing I can think of is drilling an extra alternator hole, the far right one. But I don't know if that affects the pro charger bracket. Otherwise blocks are the same.

Thanks Bob! So just the two mounting holes will be enough?

Correct, we drilled and tapped the one hole on my Camaro and it was plenty strong enough, even for when we went cog. Bob

Okay cool, whats the best way to make sure the hole is lined up exactly where I need it? Just bolt on the alternator bracket and use that to show me where to drill and tap??
