85 Monte Carlo SS build

pretty wild


so the TB will be mounted on the back side of the blower... what will go on the front of the intake?

Or am I reading it wrong....

That's were ill pipe the intercooled air back to the intake. I'm probably going to go with twin 2 1/2" inlets. I'm also thinking about going out of both sides of the blower with the outlets being 2 1/2" also. I've got those twin ProCharger intercoolers that I picked up from CamaroZGuy.

Its on the other site.... and its a one off, that he has been claiming to make for sales for years... it has yet to make any numbers or go into production.

I think I started a thread over here about it that starts out..."Id give it a shot." or something like that...

I've seen a video of one on YouTube but no real info besides its a custom job

Yea its a really slick setup with a custom intake. I believe he says it would fit under a stock hood. The only downside to bolting a roots supercharger directly to the intake is there's to way to intercool it. Well I guess you could use meth injection... my setup definitely doesn't fit under the hood. I'm going to try to get it under a 4" cowl but it'll be a chore.

I think that thing would be cool stickin through the hood of a monte ss

I do too. I guess that's why I didn't try to hard to mount it off to the side. I'm going to start making the supports out of steel tomorrow and hopefully have it finished by the end of the week so I can start figuring out the belt routing. I'm pretty sure I'll have to use a few idlers to make it work. I wonder what the longest belt ever made is...
