Going over to the dark side.... Well to forced induction that is 
. I haven't been on here much lately just lurking every now and then. I have been gathering parts for a little while to swap over to a procharger setup instead of my nitrous setup.
Here is the old nitrous setup.
Here are some of the goodies I picked up over the past year or so.
About a month ago I finally got motivated to start working on my car again. I started off by installing a new radiator.
Then I mocked up the a&a bracket and mounted the blower so I could clock the housing.
Next thing I worked on was clearancing the cowl for the new intake.
Today I started working on all the piping. I ordered my piping and cut them to size and routed them the way that worked for my setup. I had all the welding done at a local fab shop for $60.
Here is where Im at so far.
Plenty of room.
Now I waiting on fittings and hose to upgrade the fuel system. Hope to be done soon.

Thanks man.
I have a corvette balancer and i am purchasing a bracket to move the alternator on the corvette belt line. Only other accessory I run is the water pump.

Good deal. Who makes the bracket? OE or ? Was looking at the Flip drive or a DP bracket for my GTO which has the same F-Body offset. Had thought about cutting down a BMR bracket to make it work.

Nice. If it wasn't so expensive I would be doing a procharger setup ASAP. They do make a kit just for the carb guys like myself, so it will be awesome when I do gather the funds. My MSD ignition does pull timing under boost if I want.
Build looks good!
