Im running one but Speed inc did the install. I doubt i could explain well enough how they did. You should talk to ProStockJohn( he's running a ys-trim and currently upgrading to the ysi) Im sure he could give you the details your lookin for. He seems to really know his stuff!

I'm running a YS. It's mounted down where the alternator used to be on my 98 Formula.

Hugger's setup is like mine, his brackets were made by the same source.

Stealth in CO has a top mounted YSi but his motor is dropped 2 inches with his k-member.

Was Sikora (sp?) the one who made the brackets? Do you have a number or email address I could reach him at? Also, what's the difference between the ys and ysi? If you plan on upgrading to the ysi would you be interested in selling your ys head unit? Thanks

Yes Chris Sikora made the brackets:

znines@earthlink.net

If you are near Chicago you can see my LS1 bracket and his LT1 brackets. Basically my blower head unit is mounted like the LT1 S Trim setup. Reason for doing that was so I could follow his example with respect to running the belt, and so I could run the same tensioner setup. I am running a Vortech 8.0 crank setup and a 2.85 blower pulley. I am running a manual tensioner. My blower belt is about 41 inches long. Car has dynoed 746 through an unlocked T400 and through a 4.11 geared 9" rearend, with VP C12 (108 leaded motor octane). With an M6 that is for sure an 800rwhp setup.

YS = 1500 cfm
YSi = 1600 cfm

YSi based on asking folks, will make another 30hp

PM me if you wanted to buy my head unit, I was planning to upgrade it this summer.
