Yea, I've seen this car before. It's ok for what it is, but not great for all the work that he put into it.

"For I know the plans that I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future..."

Jeremiah 29:11 the only verse I have highlighted in my Bible.

Default roots supercharger
I've just purchased a golen 383/500hp lt1 running true duals and wanting to get my hands on a roots or whipple roots style supercharger for so long. Does anyone know puts them together cuz I'm just dying to find out who makes them so I can get it now and put it on and do some test runs with it to max out the hp's in my new motor

All that work is not worth it! I would have just built a blower motor and slapped a Procharger on it and be done.
