Default big weiand blower on a ls1

i should have bought the magazine but someone made a big article about the lsx motor with a BIG roots blower...

they finally made a plate to fit the 2 carbs and blower on it...

at about 3k rpms it made 500tq and they spun it to about 6k and it made 600hp...

this is on a engine dyno.. but get this... it was only 11.5% over driven

if they crank that **** up to about 30% talk about 600-700rwtq at 3k

you have to love those big blowers! lol

but its just the size and practicality that i dont like! the Knne Bell looks like a much more viable solution to big power in a small package!

thanks CHris.

I know Whipple has screw supercharger kits for EFI LS1 motors. Did someone else make the intake manifold/adaptor or did Weiand? Was this a kit? I would like to get something like that to use on my old engine in a T-bucket hot rod.
