Is it the F1-C up or even the F1 itself?

The F1 is .40" deeper than the D1. On my car with the original air inlet it looks like I have just a little bit more than 1/2". It would be close with the F1 but I believe it would fit if the original inlet was used.

This car still has the stock ATI brackets to boot. Bob

This is interesting for another reason ... if I could go to a slightly larger pulley and maintain the level of boost I currently have by improving flow, that would result in less belt slippage problems as well.

pics would be good

Yes. You seem to have something sweet going on there Bob. Inlet hat could be the next "SDCE" like upgrade to get.

I keep seeing the F1C talked about. Where does it come in against the F1 and F1R CFM wise? What about physical size, is it as big as the F1R or is it a reworked F1?

F1C (step up ratio?, inlet size?, outlet size?, self contained oiling?, reverse and regular rotation?)

Thanks

Has anyone heard of a F1A? I think it was C&D that test some supercar which included a Procharged 2005 Mustang GT that dynoed just under 800whp with 19psi of boost.
