Default Whipple LS1?

I was browsing the netz today and found that there is a Whipple kit for the LS1/LS2/LS6. I think it's a 2.0L. Has anyone on hear done it? It sounds pretty cool.

I thought that Whipples and Magnachargers (well roots-style) SCs wouldn't fit under the cowl without major surgery.

2.0L whipple is it? I figured it would have been like 3.0+ liters for sure. They make like 3.5L for Cobras!

It's a 3.2L I think. I love how that sounded on the TA.

+1 for ATI Prochargers


The biggest whipple makes is the 5.0L. No, not 5.0L mustang, 5.0L blower.

There fun dont require as much cutting as it sounds.


This is what had to be cut. Look closely you can see the cowl is cut. When the plastic goes back on you CAN NOT see it.


Heres my intercooler set up. Custom stianless steel bottle. Thats the heat exchanger right there not the ac condesnser. It is behind it tho as is the radiator. You can see the hoses running on the passanger side but if you werent familier with f-bodys you probly wouldnt even know it.

Nice set-up. Look at that torque!

BTW, you might look in the Forced Induction of LS1Tech for a lot more info on superchargers
