It will WORK on a LS1, BUT you will have some custom work to do. I was making an intake and intercooler for this but have decided to go to the bigger unit. You could also buy the lower intake from Whipple or Star performance.

The 2.3 litre can do 700rwhp I have seen as much as 800rwhp. NOT on a ls1 though. I think the new Kenne belle 2.3 for the C5 vette made over 700rwhp.

This is just the supercharger w/ pulley only.
To get it to work you will need to make an intake manifold or buy one from whipple. You will need to fab a way to mount your throttle body. you would also need to figure out a way to incorperate it into your serp belt system. This is just a few of the major things. It will definently take alot of custom work.
If you are putting this in a late model f body you might have to do some trimming of the cowl. My car is a 73 camaro so I dont have to do this. If you have some good fabricating skills and the tools to do it or the money for someone to to it for you,you can have a unique set up.

hey, im running a 6.0 in a 70 corvette, how much will an intake manaifold cost me and why do you need to mount the tb in a custom spot if there is a provision on the blower housing?

I do not know the cost of any of the parts. The TB will not bolt directly onto the supercharger you will need to make or buy an adapter.
