he must be running alky or straight meth because no intercooler. But that is badass. One time I saw an engine with 2 prochargers on it straight to the intake but it wasnt lsx.

I think Epp is going to run a F3R gear drive on their new tube chassis gto

I have built one LS with a gear drive system, it was very nice! It would be nice with a bigger blower, I had to run the F1R because of class restrictions and it still was very nice.

Looks wicked. However, call me stupid, but how do they cool the intake charge?

I think your correct look at the header looks pretty much like all the other rail headers I have ever seen.

Reminds me of the crank drive roots superchargers from the 1960's. Damn, I am getting old!

Is that really a composite manifold? Staged or just straight 16 injectors on a composite?

Just came across this thread by chance...

That is our boat motor for out superboat...

Warhawk LS7 with a F2 Pro Charger, we have been using a PWR barrel intercooler on it and using Max NOS fuel, most likely going to meth next season

Makes around the 1400hp mark when we are being gentle on it..

Some videos of it in action here
