LT1 Supercharger on LS1 Hello I had a person with a big truck crash into my 1995 Z28. I am sure it is a complete loss. My question is if I get a 1998 Z28 can my Vortech S-trim(loud) be retrofited to fit LS1? Or is it a different head unit. Thanks in advance Bradley
The head unit is the same. The intercooler(s) and bypass valve are probably the same as well - but some of the rest of the parts (brackets, pulleys, pipes, etc) may be different. It could be made to work in a variety of ways but all are likely going to require some fabrication and buying new parts...
If I were you I'd reuse as many of the parts as possible (especially the head unit) and build a front mount intercooler setup. Do a search for "FMIC" and you'll find tons of information. Doing this should definitely be cheaper than buying a whole supercharger kit.

Thats horrible! Whats the insurance covering?
looks mostly like left door, side mirror, fender, rear quarter, rocker pannel and right wheel.
From the picture it doesnt look too bad to me, Is the body tweeked?

Post pics whatever you do. 
Yeah I was thinking the car might not actually be totalled. We'll have to see though.

He probably saw those tail lights and was like, oh hell no! and smashed into you. lol j/K
That's cool your okay, you will enjoy the 98 way more! Keep us posted. I may have a vortech but, with no bracket so I am interested to see how this works out as I may have to fab my own bracket.
