Thanks!
The F-1A is a great blower!
Easier but I'm not sure about easy... lol
Thanks!
Yes it is indeed.
F-1A isn't working very hard, we were at 19 psi in my Camaro with an F-1A and a similar engine build.
Thanks, we'll eventually be adding larger fuel injectors and adding an overdrive crank pulley so we can made more boost. We use the ProCharger GTO crank pulley on our V builds, and this pulley is on the small side. I'd rather made a larger crank pulley than drop too much on the blower pulley.
It may seem like it, but it is a lot of hard work and very long hours. My day yesterday started at 4:30 am and went to 8 pm. I slept in today until 5 am... lol
Thanks, it is a cool ride!
Thanks, we appreciate it!
Thanks Steve, it is making really good power for sure.
It really isn't too bad, the rear tires aren't going to last as long, but in normal driving you hardly notice that it has a spool.
Yes indeed!
Thanks, this V does make a lot of torque, it is impressive.
I must have missed something. Thanks!
I'm not sure but I think it found a dumpster.
Yes we are and it is hard to say, it certainly can't hurt. We have made this kind of power without one, but it has to help to some degree in keeping the bottom end tight. Bob

Bob, I have not got a response back from you regarding the 05 cts-v build.
I had inquired about the 'do it yourself' kit, had asked what compression was ideal, you said, and I agree, mid 9's:1. Now only if the 3.905 bore with 4" stroke was possible.(ls6 and ls6 heads (64cc) to get that.
All i needed to know what pistons you used, Diamond custom im guessing?? you never answered??
I called JE, Diamond, Weisco, and about 5 others... its custom or nothing.
Best idea I came up with was swapping the ls6 heads for lq9, and using JE #264041 and would get 9.7:1.
What was used on that 05, ls6, cts-v build??

Im no newbie, built the ls1 up 2001-03 on my Ram Air . Just want to duplicate what you did....

Well be nice to see how the fast does at continuted pretty high boost since so many say they don't work for boosted applications. Mine is doing fine but only going 8psi presently.
Very impressive build. Depressing seeing those tires shredded up that bad at only 2000 miles.
