It's a good deal if you can stomach having that ugly ass blower on your engine.

I almost made a trade for one of those kits earlier this year, I just wish it sat a lil lower.
***Edit***
I just seen the new offset adapter. I'm still unsure it would clear my valve covers though.

Check out the last page of the thread. If you buy today (last day), you can get the adapter kit for $600.

The whole kit is 1600 bux still and a vortech or turbo will put this thing in the toilet power wise.......
It cost to go fast plain and simple..

That car either has a rod knock or a bad exhaust leak. In my opinion the snout looks horrid and is so long it will prolly cause premature bearing failure lol. Just get a procharger for a few hundred more cooler charge no hood problems etc

i just think is pretty cool..and its only 1250 for the steel adapter and 1600 for the aluminum one(supercharger included in prices)..if someone could fab up an intercooler any other 03-04 whipple/kenne bell will fit aswell..3-4 inch cowl necessary tho...i just think its cool..voretch or other charger would crap on this but that whine just makes me smile

pretty limited with that belt setup, barely any wrap around the upper pulley and only 6 ribs.
going to be a slipping POS, just good for dyno queens and car shows IMO.

this is the kind of belt wrap you need for an eaton not to slip, especially with only 6 ribs vs 8 on a stock cobra/lightning setup.

Thought of it is cool, however doesn't really play out right... I'd be interested to see what a built 363W with a 3.4 Whipple would do though..

Honestly, I think it looks like crap. That thing will definitely have bearing problems. Someone should come up with a kit like the old BBK Instacharger. That would be a much better setup for getting an M112 onto a 5.0

Very unique and intersting but I would not touch it with a 10-ft pole. As mentioned above, that looks like bearing failure waiting to happen.
