>Hey Dennis ,
I don't mean to bust in on your post here , but did you see my post in the Forced induction section about Vortech Superchargers decal ? I can order you one (6" x 8") for like $5.00 each .
I already paid for the setup fee ($40.00) .
Let me know .

 

no problem andre, unfortunately i try not to put any stickers on my cars. sleeper look.

i actually have a bunch of stickers in a box from all my parts i bought through the years. i have no use for them. i did put a few on my college refridgerator. and i have a few big vortechs around here somewhere when i bought my blowers.
take it easy and good luck.

Dennis,
You need to get new mounting brackets and tensioner as they are totally differnt than the P600B.

I think the brackets are about $300 from ATI (if interested contact Lonnie Pavtis as he's an ATI retailer) www.westol.com/lpavtis/ "E" mail lpavtis@westol.com

It didn't say anything about pulley's, it should have some kind of pulley on the charger but you'll need a crank pulley (~$80).

12 rib belt will set you back about $50-75 (cant recall exactly) You might be able to get one cheaper but it depends on the size if you need a 42" then you get porked as Gates only sells them to ATI, if you can get by with a 41 or 41.5 then I think you can get those from NAPA (they sent a 41 with the kit I got and there was no ****ing way it was gonna fit so I mailed it back and they sent me a 42", I think a 41.5 might work and I'll try that the next time I need a belt as the more I think about it I think it was $75)

As far as the tubing goes, you can use the same tubing on both sides of the blower. I fabbed up a solid intake tube for the inlet tract but you can use the P600B stuff.

New head units are ~2k.

As far as getting it to fit, it's tight but it fits

Good luck,
Boost is addictive

Let me know if you have any other questions.

edit - didn't notice the picture at the bottom .......purdy take on an extra couple hundred to the price above as I was quoting a satin one, also it abviously has a pulley on the charger.

Go for it and bid at the last minute
