Anyone running the Fabworkz STS-V M122 kit?
Looking for info on the Fabworkz STS-V supercharger kit on truck motors. I haven't been able to find many details or even a completed build, which is surprising.
If anyone has the kit and wouldn't mind sharing some info or knows of a build thread that actually finished, that would be awesome. I plan to do a writeup when I install my kit in a few weeks. Fabworkz supplies this as a base, 'builder' kit, so pretty light on components or details for specific applications.
Primarily interested in:
The rest seems pretty straightforward. I've already got the aftercooler heat exchanger system in place, crank pulley pinned, and have fuel system parts on the way. Hoping I can get enough of a warm fuzzy to finalize a few things and take the plunge soon, so I can start street tuning before winter hits.

Primarily interested in:
- Belt length. I'm going to stick with the factory 6 rib for now, as this is going to be a low boost setup. This is something I would like to know prior to install, as my truck is my daily.
- Remote throttle body tube, mount, etc. I'm not set up to weld aluminum and can't find steel TB weld flanges, so I will likely mock something up and see if I can get a local shop to fab up a hard tube. Again...not ideal on the daily.
- Evap connection. Anything special needed?
- Expected power on a stock (+ cam) LQ4. I got the flex fuel injectors and hope they'll be enough, but I haven't seen a dyno to confirm power levels.

I don't have any info on the kit but there was a guy on this forum who put that blower on a 6.0L in a K5 Blazer iirc.
He had the manifold flanges custom made before there was a kit and was documenting the entire build which he completed I believe.
The build was in the Forced Induction category, so I'd take some time and do a few searches, I don't remember his name, or I'd post a link.
