These are from the latest install, not the previous hotrod. There are modifications required for the F1C/F1R. Some items need clearancing and the hood liner will need to be removed.

Since the motor flows so well, I'm not sure if you'll be pushing through enough boost for that to be much of a problem...

I am not certain. If the pressure in the cylinder isn't the case, then quote me and tell me otherwise

Oh I'm honestly not trying to encite a heated discussion...It's just if you're already in there why not do more to have insurance of trouble free usage for years to come... I know that most aftermarket products (that are worth a damn) are usually much better than stock...IMO... I was talking about if you're going to use a F1X to do these things... If you were using a P1/D1 then I wouldn't think that it would make enough pressure like you said to make it a factor to worry about...

I know what you mean... If I had the money to do a supercharged LS7 setup, I'd have the money to do those minor things to promote the motor's safety.....

But what I'm saying is it may not be necessary.

I would never suggest that somebody install an F1C on a stock...anything. This car is getting a P1SC-1 which will be good for 620 or a bit more at the tire with about 5 psi.

The pictures are of an F1R test fit as its assumed that there are going to be more enthusiasts interested in taking the platform to an even higher level. Big power with the LS7 requires the supporting hardware like any engine.
