Default Mounting the Procharger like C5 kit?

Why can't we mount the Procharger like the C5 kit on top of the engine. It would be nice to actually see the blower.

Did a little research. I was thinking of using ECS or the A&A 8-Rib bracket and switching all of the acc. over to the corvette style so all the belts would line up. Anyone know if the corvette acc. will fit, especially the alt. clearing the hood. If everything bolts together I could get a custom FMIC and run a big 4" inlet pipe to the blower with a hudge filter.

Um, I'm thinking fenderwells might be a problem. And some of the acces. might not clear the K-member. Just a thought, I'm not sure.

Not sure what intercooler setup you are running, but it is a good idea to keep ducting to a minimum; belt length, too.
