Installing Procharger NEED HELP!!! Hi.
I just bougth this kit from a member but it is used and dont have any instructions and we dont know how to atach the Crank Pulley and locate the unit.
The guy who is installing have installed many prochargers in truks and corvette, but never in an Fbody, so if anybody have a link, pic, manual, or semething that can help, I really apreciate.
Here is the ad with pics so you can se the pulley.

98-02Fbody LS1 ATI Procharger F1R Kit
This is the baddest supercharger out there. Capable of making over 1300hp! The F1R flows 2000cfm and capable of 38 psi of boost. This kit is complete including F1R headunit, UPGRADED 12 rib setup, 12 rib crank pulley, 2 brand new 12 rib belts, bracket, twin intercoolers, intake, piping, race style bypass valve, bolts, and couplers. This is an extremely low mileage unit with around 30 dyno pulls and less than 10 quarter mile passes, no street mileage. Setup is being parted out, will be sad to see it go!! I have around 8 grand into this supercharger setup, will let go for 5k OBO.

^^ Yes, with the 8 rib you need the ATI superdamber (NOT procharger- accessible technologies inc), another ATI brand name. Just a coincidence... On a side note, let us know how that 12 rib pulley setup goes. I have never seen a 12 rib on an LS1 f-body. I was under the impression that an 8 rib was as wide as was possible. I would assume you have to move the radiator significantly for clearance with the 12 rib...
here is the manual http://www.ls1.com/ed/procharger_owners_manual.pdf
from the pics, it looks like you need a few parts, like ati dampner as afastyzf said, some colder plugs, the cruise control/air relocation brackets, horn relocation bracket, and the air intake for the procharger(flex tube)

I sell the balancer and the crank pinning kit, as well as any other piece parts that you may need. You can find everything at this link. http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com...l?category=193
That by pass valve is not going to be large enough, you are going to need the ProCharger race valve that I sell for $360.00 in the link above. If you are going to run more than 12 psi of boost, I'd either go with a front mount intercooler kit, also in the link above, or add a methanol kit to your engine. Bob

Everyone on this forum has been trying to buy the 12 rib setup seperatly from me but so far I have refused to part out!

Thanks.
No one has done it that I am aware of, although that is what we want to do with my ow car very soon. We're going to convert mine from an eight rib to a twelve rib. The radiator will have to move forward.

So, do I need to buy 8 rib pulleys, the balancer and a belt?
Can I go to de feedback forum if this guy lied to me?
Thanks again Bob.

How much boost are you looking to make? An F-1A will give you 18 to 20 psi at 500 to 1000 ft elevation on a 402 with good heads. An F-1A will fit right on without any problems that you may encounter with that F-1R. The F-1R is .75 dia larger and is longer. It also takes a lot more hp to turn it, and with the F Body set-up you'll more than likely encounter problems with belt slippage. Bob
We would like arround 15 psi on a 383 at 8000 DAs.

What about if I keept the F1R and change for a bigger SC pulley and a complete 6 ribs pulleys, I mean, buy all the basic pulleys with a F1R.
Did you verify that the head unit is designed to work on the f body from the chart I posted above? Bob

If you tried to run that F-1R with a six rib belt, I would probably see the belt slippage smoke up here in Indiana! You might be able to make the F-1R with additional bracing on the ProCharger bracket assembly to keep it from flexing, and use the eight rib assembly. A lot of people have had good results with the SDCE upgrade, that might work for you.

Can you please pm me an invoice for that we need to run the F1R?
Thanks a lot Bob, you have been very helpful.
