Consider it a building block for your new marketing campaign. That said, I will demand a discount on your product. Maybe then, it will only cost me one kidney to purchase.

Do they not sell a base?? A SBC base would work just have to fix the bolt angle (I've done that on SBC to LT1 intake builds).

Whipple uses a "brick" style intercooler, or again Meth can be used when in boost to solve that issue.
In the future I may sell my D1SC and build a 175Ax setup, in fact I may just call Whipple and make this happen, lol.
Anyone want a Fully done D1sc setup with intercooler and tubing? lol

What is this "brick" style intercooler you speak of? I thought these style superchargers were efficient enough that you don't need an intercooler?

Few questions BBK, can you explain what the ports are for? I am guessing your plugging in the IAT sensor near the base, and that just another vaccumm port next to it?? MAP sensor and other vac ports near the inlet before the Whipple?

The more I look at this the more I want one, lol

Also what about the actuator and bypass valve? How you setting those up? Any heat exchanger?

Bypass mechanically connected to a butterfly valve located between the CF elbow and SC. Ports are for Brake booster, IAT, vac for remaining requirements.

BBK how do you plan to run the belt/Crank pulley? Guess your going to use a spring loaded tensioner?

Is there a way to calculate blower speed with some math?
