What do you guys think about $2400 for a used P600B kit for an LT1? Its complete with everything I would need to bolt right in. I was looking to get a P1SC or D1SC, but this came along, and has 1500-2000 miles on it. I thought it was priced a little higher than some of the other ones I have seen, but I donno ...

Maybe I should jsut hold out ...

 

I paid $2000 for a P1SC/twins, FCU, and everything else i need for my kit with 500 miles on it.

I would hold out and look for a better deal. People are always throwin blowers on stock engines, blowing them up a couple 100 miles later, then selling them to rebuild the engine.

 

Agreed, hold out for a better deal.

 

True True ...

I dont maybe its just me, but I like the idea of a self contained one better ... I even thought about picking this up, selling the head unit, and then waiting until I found a used D1SC but ...

For right now I want to run as low as I can pulley it down too ( 6-7 ) psi, conservative tune, and run it like that until I have the cash to do a stroker forged short block and good heads.

 

Sounds a little high. The P600 will be plenty for a stock or mild blower set-up. I would wait to find a D1 kit if you think a forged bottom end is in your future (it usually is when you put forced induction on a stock LT1).
At worse you can find a P1SC kit and run for now. Procharger can upgrade those units to a D1 later but, will probably be pricey.

 

I plan on coming up with something similar to RSKRAUSE's car.

I do plan on building a stroker motor thats really low compression, so I can run it FI. I just wanted something NOW to make it faster until I have the money to build it the way I want to. I figured I can always pulley a D1SC way down for now, like say 6-8PSI, and then crank it back up when I build my stroker forged shortblock.

 

I got my used p600b for 1875 shipped. It has worked out great but I think you could do a little better on price.

 

Thanks guys ... I think I am going to hold out and keep my eye open for a used D1SC. A P1SC might be less than what I want for when I make the low compression stroker motor ... Sometime in the far off future, because college kills my wallet.

 

id probably sale mine for 2000, Im going to up to a D1 for my new set up, I just dont know when I plan on getting rid of it yet, i was kinda planning on running it on the new motor till I get money for the D1, I have 9 and 12 8 rib pullys, and a 15 lb 12 rib set up for mine, both belt tenshioners, a new FMU never used from a D1 kit I bought from a friend, Trex inline fuel pump, dual core intercooler set up.

 

The p600b is a good unit but it is kind of noisy. I still have my old one and went to a vortech V2, it is awesome. I may use my old blower on my new car, '70 corvette stingray.

 

thats the good part, I love the way the p600b sounds, everyone could hear me comming from a 1/2 mile away they would hear the blower whine.

 

Check this out decent deal and a super honest guy

I love the whine mine has. I thought something was wrong when I first fired it up. I ran to turn it off.

People either think your car is broken or know what's going on. It's great.

 

Hey man you can't post stuff like that.....some of us need to work on our spending habits

 

Hahah that is a killer deal. I fear buying from other boards though. Man I want that.

I think I am going to wait for a D1 ... preferably a SC. Thats just one of my **** personal prefrences ... the self contained part ...

In the long run I want to run a 383-396 low compression car, on/around 14 PSI, with good heads, and a blower cam. I want to shoot for 600RWHP. So I think a D1SC would be better than a P600B would be for me.

Also, blower noise is irrelevent. Either way I would be content. As long as it flies.
