EDIT:

Didn't he initially say these were going to be for G8's and GTO's? Isn't the G8 a square port motor? So there would be a blower manifold for each?

There is going to be a G8 kit from what I'm told, however I'm curious if there will be any differences in firewall clearance, pulley alignment, etc.

Im sold !! I was looking at getting a Procharger but seeing this Im all over it.

I didnt want to swap heads (Trickflow 235's w/62cc) but if I can have this system it will be well worth it.

Once you have a date of release deposit will be made.

BTW would you be interested in testing on a fully built 418 LS3 auto with a 4k stall

are you finishing kit? can i get discount on 2? what about a group buy? I mean the first 10 to get there since it is a fist version of this should get a group discount. Who would want to sign up?

People should really be patient. He's probably making sure the quality is top notch. Everyone also has to take into consideration that we had the SEMA show here in Vegas this week.

He probably has just a tuner kit from kenne bell, not the GTO kit. I am interested in the kit though.

How do you think a 2.8 kit on a forged stock displacment LS2 will perform? I know the 2.8 is "for 400+ CI motors" but Im just trying to plan out my build and keep the $$ within reason

BTW: Count me in for the first round of the group buy.

i believe they mean "400ci" motors as far as it will provide plenty of boost for that sized motor, forged or not. IF you are forging, i would imagine it would do well for you as long as you plan on running lots of boost.

That sure does look alot like the "GTO" Bracket and not the Crappy Kennebell setup.

Jeff, how are the prelim numbers coming? Ill have some pictures to send you next week

lee ls1 · 11-12-2008, 03:55 PM

thats looks great! Have you any pic's of the intercooler? cannot see it in the pic? also you have any idea of the Injector size?

Cheers

Lee

What compression ratio would work best for this kit? I know the norm for FI is "low CR" but the Maggies seem to like a little more compression. 9.5:1? higher? Lower??

No ofence dude. Are you helping with developement or something? I am interested in kit but how the hell did you get that? It looks like a kit fron turnkey engines because the logo is on there. If so it does not mean "GTO" does it? I figure this came from their turnkey engine supply 408 kits.

Juiced · 11-13-2008, 11:30 AM

No i did not help with development, The GTO setup was done by Jeff, I did how ever stuff this into an f-body a while back.

Johny GTO · 11-13-2008, 11:34 AM

i dont see turnkey label on there. i see a kenne bell logo on there.

the turnkey logo is on the bracket. it looks like turnkey anyway. i think the major issue is the clearance of the rear of the blower not the bracket. bracket looks like a vette bracket or tuner kit bracket. but still interested. how deep are the scratches on top of the blower?
