Smile New 10 Rib 'Vette Blower Mt. From ECS

Today we recieved part of the new 10 rib Corvette Procharger mounting system. This is way long overdue in my opinion. We are about to install a new 427 in my C-5. Our shop has been a long time Procharger booster but we have been looking hard at Turbo's. Lot's of power,no pulleys or belts.Thought i'd get the 427 running with an F1-C or R & get a tune then make up my mind about the final setup. No more indecision! The ECS kit( part has shipped,about 2 weeks on the rest Chris said) is the best machine work imaginable. I have been running a Bridgeport for 28 years. No personal claims of being a master machinist but you can rest assured this is as good as machine work gets. The polish work is just beautiful with attention to detail. 10 ribs is what we have always needed! They resized the lower drive pulley so you can run a bigger compressor pulley & along with that awesome tensioner will keep that belt on & tight. No more belt problems,alignment, breakage etc... This 10 RIB looks like the answer to my FI needs. Sorry but no pictures. This is only the second kit so somebody will have some soon. I guess everybody already knows they are very nice people to do business with. THANKS ECS!!

Thanks

The 10rib should be great.We run the 8rib setup on Vette's with no belt slip on 18lbs of boost.The 10's should take 24-26lbs

please do not post contact info or pricing for ECS, as they are not a site sponsor. Thanks
