Default LS9 supercharger in a 2002 35th anniversary SS

Just like the title state. I'm in the process of putting a LS9 supercharger in my 35th anniversary SS. I'm currently going to use my stock ls1 block with this setup. Once I get it running and all the bugs worked out I will swap the ls1 out for a Ls3.

The V crank pulley is on the Vette spacing. Not sure how you would go about making your current accessories work. You could always get a cts-v FEAD since the parts are in the same location, just set back at corvette depth.

No they're different. Are you going to run the LS9 blower with the factory LS9 snout or getting the LPE snout to run off of the Ctsv/ZL1 pulley?

You could use a truck balancer and have the same spacing with the snout pulley but you'll have to run a 6 groove belt vs the ls9 8 groove.

Ctsv snout on an LS9 blower? If so the shaft needs to be modified. Won't bolt right up.

The heads are L92 heads with the stock intake valves and the exhaust valves are smaller. The Intake valves clear the cylinder walls but the exhaust wont. So I went to a smaller set of exhaust valves so I could get it to run. Right now all I want to do is get the charger in and setup and down the road I plain on putting in a ls3 or maybe a ls7 block. but for now I'm using my stock 5.7. So yeah right now zero ***** are given lol

First post of mine in a LONG time. Thinking of putting a LS9 blower on my Firebird. Any update on this project?
