Default MagnaCharger <New Applications>

For those of you who would love to see a MagnaCharger application for the F-body. Maybe just Maybe your dream has come true...
http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tec..._magnacharger/

The above is a link if it worked to the popular hot rodding website. They have an article about the MagnaCharger and supposed inside info on a F-body application.

Lets all hope this actually gets done.

<Update>
I e-mailed MagnaCharger and they were quick to respond saying they were unable to resolve issues for fitting their product into the F-body.

But then again maybe their info people don't know everything they need to yet. Oh well we can only hope.

LOL!!! This would be a perfect setup for us... Root style blowers are awesome and the power under the curve would be a perfect fit for our cars..

I don't understand why someone at Whipple or Kenne Bell does not get more interested in our cars. I would sell my left nut to get a screw type charger but since there is not one avaliable (and no one showing interest) then I will pray that Magnacharger will have someting for us.

E-Bay might be the best place to do that

I've talked to Magnacharger a few times about this. They said the only chance of getting this kit under the cowl would be to do some cutting and remove the wipers. This would be a very good system for a daily driver. It provides plenty of power just off idle.

I believe that the lt1 sits lower in the f-body allowing for more room under the cowl. There have been a few lt1 guys doing this.

Do you really think that you could auction off your left nut?
