Default Anyone looking for a deal on a Vortec Kit ?

I bought a guy's garage that was going under. I ended up getting a new Vortec kit in the deal. it looks mostly complete and never installed for a 94-97 LT-1 Camaro or Impala SS. Was wondering if anyone would have interest in and be at a really fair price.

I thought the f-body kit was different from the b/y-body? What trim is it?

That is not the trim, V2 simply means it's the quiet helical blower. Need to know trim as in what compressor like S trim, Si, T, Sc, Ysi, etc

I talked to Vortec and they said its the same kit. I don't know which head unit it is but there's the tag off of it in the pic.

A tech at Vortech told me that the LT1 V1 blowers are S trim unless specified on the tag. For example, the T trim version would say V1 T instead of just V1. I'm guessing the V2 kit is the same so that blower is probably an S trim.

Hasn't posted a price, wants offers (which is technically against the rules here, but this isn't technically a for sale thread anyway so meh).

Don't want to make an offer since the ins check I was supposed to get last week still hasn't showed up, and I have no clue what its worth anyway since the V3s have been out a long time already and they are internally lubed so don't need the oil line like the V1 and V2.

Also I'm pretty sure vettes use a different rotation direction and totally different accesory bracket so I doubt it would be Y-body compatible. I thought even F and B-body were different so I would definitely double check with Vortech on exactly what kit it is to see what cars it fits.

A quick Google doesn't bring up much, and neither does "37255" on the Vortech site.

If it is an LT1 kit then its definitely an F(or B?)-body kit, not for y-body Vettes. They have the reverse rotation/outlet. Sorry these posted huge:

F-Body


Y-Body

It's not a vette kit for sure. I'll take 2000.00 shipped for the kit.
