Does Vortech fit under SS hood?

Is there a Vortech supercharger unit that will fit under an SS hood without cutting the sheet metal?

Why not?

Just kidding but yeah I was told when I had mine installed that camaro guys had to cut the inside of the hood.

Why not just get a ATI stage 2 and blow away a vortech <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" /> + you won't have to cut up <img border="0" alt="[gay]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_rainbow.gif" /> ,your hood <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> Good job VORTECH, make a aftercooler that the owners have to cut-up their $1500.00 hood to use. What weeners!!!

Re: Does Vortech fit under SS hood?

Ok I got a stupid question!
