Default Procharger Install, How Hard Is is on a C5z

I got a 2003 Z06 that im fixing to procharge, but im wanting to save some money and do it myself, so im wondering how hard it really is to install it. i have pulled the motor out of my 00 WS6 and built another and put it back it so i do have experience with the LSX motors, but i was just wanting to know how hard it really is,

Thanks for the help guys,
Billy

if you have done an engine swap you wont have any problem at all. should take you about 6-8 hours to do. If you havent purchased the kit yet we are having a super special on them right now. give us a call!

I have quite a few C5's in the above two sections of my website with ProChargers installed on them. The installation is pretty straight forward on a C5. Bob

Pulling the rack and pinning the crank are the hardest part. The rest isn't that bad just pay attention to the proper routing of everything!
