Default Will a Corvette Procharger work on an F-body?

I might be able to get a D1SC head unit that is coming off of a Z06. Will this work on an F-body? I know f-bodies need the head unit to have reverse rotation. I am just not sure if the Corvette head units are reverse rotation or not. Thanks a lot.

Yes, a blower off of a LS1 Corvette will work on a LS1 F-body, but you will need different brackets and such. But the head unit is the same.

Straight from ATI. I know a guy who is a dealer for Procharger and I am going to him for all of the stuff that I need.

Talk to SDCE. You'll save money going with them. Even if you have an inside contact at ATI. If you plan on more than 6psi of boost you'll be talking to SDCE sooner or later. Might as well start off with them and get it done right. just some advice from someone who's been there and done that.

Well, ATI also makes an 8-rib conversion now, and It's not very expensive (actually it's the same price at time of purchase- or $350 upgrade if you already have a 6-rib). From what I have heard, it is MUCH better than their 6-rib setup.

I feel confident in saying that SDCE's 6 rib spring tensioned setup would outperform ATI's 8 rib solid tensioner. They are that much better. Plus a lot less strain on the crank.
