If it's smaller than the base G-Trim unit don't bother. Find out what the head unit is before you put too much thought into using it. Try to determine which type of car it came off of, or what kit it originally came with.
Once you find out what it is, you'll need to determine if it's a CW or CCW blower and if you're up for the challenge of making up brackets, or if you want to spend all the $$$ and buy the Vortech stuff.
Good luck!

You're not much help. You really need to find out more information on the head unit. If you think it's going to be this easy, wait until you get into the rest of the build.
All I can tell you is if it's off a 3.8 Ford, the brackets will not fit a LS1.

Yes they sell the brackets alone, A&A has them, but the point is what head unit it is. If it is too small, it might not be worth putting on your car. Honestly, the blower itself is a small part of a much bigger picture.
If all you have is the head unit and brackets that dont fit your car, it will cost you several thousand dollars to purchase, new, everythign you need. It would be close to just buying a complete kit new.
