AFAIK, theres only one roots style blower setup for F bodies and I was far from impressed with their numbers.

The Vortech seems to clutter everything on top of the engine and it wasnt to appealing to me.

This is a great package that includes everything you need to get the supercharger installed. Bob

I like this video showing off the Procharger , when you down shift the boost comes in quick as shown . Notice the short shifts here not to over rpm the unit .

It makes a lot more power in the mid range that what most positive displacement superchargers produce. Keep in mind that these numbers would be 50 rwhp higher or so, if this car was run on a DynoJet chassis dyno. A new C6 Z06 on my dyno only makes 420 rwhp. Bob
