No, thats definitely an LS1 bracket. Looks like the outlet of the blower is clocked up instead of down tho. Thats easy to fix, just loosen the bolts around the perimeter and turn it and tighten them back down.

Looks like everything is there. I dont see the hardware, but I'm assuming thats all in the bag there. Also, dont see a filter, but those are cheap.

missing from another kit that someone had on here "Missing colder plugs, the cruise control/air relocation brackets, horn relocation bracket, and the air intake for the procharger", does it look like these are here, idk what they look like and what kind of spark plugs r the best (is that what this guy meant by colder plugs?)

3800 is for sure a good deal for a F1 kit. You dont need the horn relocation bracket or cruise control relocation bracket, you can make them work with a little ingenuity. Yes, you'll need to get 1-2 step colder plugs with a blower. How much boost are you planning on running? Stock engine?

Also, if thats an F1, you should seriously consider the big red race BPV.

You will also need a better than stock fuel system with an F1.

The dual ICs will become somewhat of a restriction, but that may help you make less boost for the moment if you are trying to keep it modest at first. I'd reccommend a meth kit also.

Its hard to tell from the pic, but is that an 8 rib setup? (Are the pulleys 8 rib?) A 6 rib definitely wont cut it with an F1. And on that note, if it is an 8 rib, you will need to get an ATI superdamper to attach the crank pulley. Also, pin your crank.

Dont forget you'll need gauges. Boost, fuel pressure, and a wideband are the best.

Hope your trans and rear end can handle the power too..

Lots of other stuff to consider as you can see. So your $3800 initial investment will only lead to a huge nickle and dime fest. Hope you're ready

I'd ask for some up close pictures of the head unit. You want to make sure the impeller blades aren't excessively torn up. I'd also ask to for up close pictures of every item, that will allow all of us to look it over for you.

Make sure it is an 8 rib kit.

NGK TR6 (pn#4177 gapped at .032) spark plugs are what you need. Bob

Also get a pic of the serial# and call procharger and ask them for all records they have of that head unit. They can tell you stuff like what date it was first sold, how many times oil has been ordered for it (thru procharger at least), what car it was purchased for, etc.

Looks like it has the SDCE 8-rib setup, which is nice. I can see it has the adapter hub to use the factory balancer.

so i guess all i need to make this all work out would be a pinning kit if my crank is not keyed?
and big red race bvp

chad what r the dual IC's
and do i need to get the superdampner to get this system to work or could i get away without it for right now. Budget is getting close and would like to get it on the road but dont wana mess anything up at the same time.

I'm not entirely sure if you need the superdamper to get it to physically mount up if it has some sort of adapter that will allow you to put the crank pulley on the stock damper, like MadIceV8 said above. But The stock damper doesnt have a keyway in it, so it wouldnt do any good to pin the crank at that point. I would just go ahead and get the superdamper if I were you.

You dont NEED the race bypass valve (BPV) for now, but I'd put it on your list as one of the first things to upgrade when funds becomes available. Bob has the best price on it new if you cant find a used one.

Dual IC= dual intercoolers. Those box looking things in your pics that cool the charged air. The dual IC setup is more restrictive than a single big front mount intercooler setup (FMIC)... But again, thats something you can live with for now until more funds become available to do a FMIC upgrade.
