Default Video of roots blower setup on F-Body

http://s12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...tsblownlt1.flv

Been working on this setup for about 6 months or so, finally got it right tonight. It all fits under the cowl without any hacking and under the stock hood without any hacking. The vid sucks because all I have is a webcam on my laptop, I'll try to get better video this weekend.This is on a stock internal motor at the moment and it needs a tune real bad so I can't really get on it just yet to see what it'll do, hope to get it on a dyno in the next week or so and get it tuned and see if it puts down a half way decent number. Might have to build the motor for it to do any good, we'll see I guess.........

Any of you LS1 guys interested in this type of setup?

Im also trying to make a blower manifold for a LS1. Trying to decide which blower to use. M112 sounds like an idea for a somewhat mild supercharger to start at. Send me a PM of your setup. See if I can get any good ideas on how to fab mine up.

If somebody wants to donate an LS1 car for a few months I'd be happy to come up with something for one of them. I'm planning on selling a few kits for the LT1 in the very near future and would do the same for the LS1 once it was built.

I guess I'll have to wait till the link works again.

Also, please be careful about soliciting here, or this will get locked in a hurry.
