I don't think that'll work without a head swap due to the different style ports between LS1 and LSA heads.

They make an adapter for the heads, and there are a few threads on ls1gto around this.

You need all the accessories and a different hood along with the supercharger stuff. Kinda big deal and might as well get a used TVS at that point.

Unless you are getting the blower and such for free or stupid cheap, it really isn't worth it over getting a TVS kit designed for the car.

As I said, unless that is complete, you are going to find a lot of things that you will need to purchase in order to make that work, such as the heat exchanger, injectors, accessories, fuel pump, etc. On top of that, you need a new hood since the blower sits too high. It will sit even higher with the adapter plates. Unless you just want to go the hillbilly route and cut a hole.

Has it been done? Yes. But I think you are going to find that a lot of parts are going to nickel and dime you to the point where you could have purchased a TVS unit designed to work with everything you already have.

Theres a thread on the Facebook page, a shop has made a pulley that puts the belt inline with the GTO accessories. I am just waiting for someone to confirm there is a lid that clears the stock hood.

I'd be interested in seeing more on this pulley.

The "$600" blowers are far from complete.

You still need all gaskets and hardware, to replace the isolator, a charge air cooler brick, a lid, all sensors, a heat exchanger, pump, lines, ice box/tank, new intake, pullet ***'m...
