e-mail straight from Dustin himself.
"Eddie,
Yes, we do plan on it, but its after we get through all the Camaro stuff and Corvette (same kit). It wasn’t originally in our future, but once we decided to go this backwards route, it opens the door to many other projects including the G8 and others. I can’t say it’s going to fit perfectly, and we probably would only do it as a “tuner” kit because back tracking on older motors is a nightmare!
Appreciate your kind words!
Thanks,
Dustin"

All the Whipple guys are great. I've talked to them several times last year about a 3.3 kit. Very helpful and informative. KB however.....it was like I was Chester the Molester inquiring about a date with the guys daughter. Real Sh1tty. They dont want to talk to any F-body guy.

Yes, we do plan on building the system, I've only begun to test fitment, but we do have plans on coming out with a tuner kit (no tune or fuel system) for some of the F-body applications.
Thought you guys might enjoy!
What a SC sounds like with no intercooler or manifold system to take out the noise (on our electric tester):

And a 1000hp marine motor on the dyno with the 3.3L SC

Need to add strobe light next time so you can see the rotors turning

So are you guys going to make a KB style elbow to mount the TB out by the drive end and/or change the manifold to mount the supercharger farther forward?

thats a good question, i wonder if they'll make it like theyre gonna make the 2.9L kit for 10' camaro, u know kinda like the maggie kit, throttle body up front and a drive pulley, i guess thats what u call it, on the side. but definatly a good question, i'm curious as well. and curious on what blower they do intend on using as the 3.4 seems a lil too big and would need some major plastic surgery. 2.3 is i believe rated for 700-800hp, and i think thats plenty for a majority of the people on here. and then theres the 2.9L which is what rated at like 1000hp or some crazy number like that.

Well, with regards to the maggie kit, isn't it maxing out at roughly 500rwhp, give or take a little based on what mods the engine has?
If I'm dropping over $6000.00 on a supercharger, I want more than just 500rwhp. I'm currently at 450rwhp with a mild h/c setup, so spending $6k for 50 hp is nutz, I'd rather go bigger cubes and get a solid 100hp. So I hope it's the 2.9L kit for us.

when i say like the maggie, i meant the design of it, like how it has a shaft on the side with the pulley, and tb up front. power out put i'm sure since it is a bigger unit then the maggie mp112 i'm sure it would be more. i read somewhere, tryin to find it, that the 2.3 whipple is capable of producing 700+hp, and i believe 1000 on race applications. with meth injection and high octane. and yes i hope 2.9 as well. but the more options the better.
