Hi guys
Putting together a 69 camaro and I want put in a Procharged LS3 - LS7 but it's all got to fit under a 2 inch cowl hood and I want air con and power steering. I am chasing information on how to go about it, I would like to run with a F1R procharger as I would like to get around 1000hp mark.
Thanks in advance

Haven't actually seen one yet. I have seen a kenne bell and a few maggies. I would say a starting place would be the GTO or Vette blower mounts because the F-body puts the blower down low on the driver side and there isn't much room there on most swaps.

not sure if you want FI or carb-the FI is def lower than running a carb
i run a procharger in my 69 chevelle, but use a carb
im running the corvette front drive seup, and a d1sc with an 8 rib conversion
procharger told me i could fit an f1r in like it is, but not sure my air intake would then fit-i have about 4" from the rad. to the lip on the procharger
the F body setup might work-you might try their web site, look at the diff setups and see how they look
i only used the vette s/c and brackets, made up the rest of the setup to fit
i run a 2" cowl hood, but think it would fit with the stock hood-Procharger is working on a universal kit, but i think its a few months away yet
i used an ATI balancer, but w/o the AC pulley-the chevelle chassis gets in the way of the ac, but it can be made to fit
i run the vette p/s setup also

Haha i wouldnt be worried about only having a 2" cowl hood with 1000rwhp. I think a kennebelle would fit as a carb and hat fits with Ford_ind has mentioned. Thats almost 7" right there over a stock LS1 manifold. With a 3" air cleaner my setup clearned the victor JR with a carb on top of it.
