Will Vortech fit if I have a Hotchkis STB? I have the Hotchkis STB and am thinking of getting a Vortech supercharger. I need to know if they will clear eachother.
I "think" I want to use the T-Trim head unit. My reasoning is much like that of using a 10-71 roots instead of a 6-71 roots on a big block. It should produce more low end torque (start power production lower in RPM) yet not generate the heat of overdriving a small head unit. Besides cost, can anyone think of a reason NOT to do this?
Also, I have ASP underdrive pullies on the car now. Will I have to replace or can I bolt the Vortech pully to the ASP?

Re: Will Vortech fit if I have a Hotchkis STB? Nope stb will not fit with a Vortech SC. I had one. I sold it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> Also, you will have to use the Vortech pulley. I too had an ASP and again I had to sell it. I didn't really care about selling the pulley, but that STB was a nice chassis mod.
