Is the compressor labelled "TRSA12B", if so, it is a standard positive displacement compressor from a Trailblazer. Let us know how it works.
I'm looking at doing a Classic Air with the same compressor in my 72 Olds 442.

1. cost (I paid $35 for the LS1 intake, LS6 is closer to $300)
2. since it's turbo I can't imagine the difference in HP would warrant the cost

tonight we got the 4" down pipe built, 4" filter to turbo pipe cut, and tranny cooler mounted and barked at the hole the rest of the time.

it looks like there is TONS of room but its starting to get a little tight on the hot side. The 3" log and the 4" down pipe along with the waste gate is proving to be a snug fit.
