Was wondering if anyone on here has a copy of the installation instructions and possibly a few pics of it installed that could be e-mailed to me?? Also, once I've got all the parts...anyone with experience wanna help with the install? It's a 6lb unit..

His names Mike, he was going to install my Novi, but I had a local guy do it instead. He runs a Vortech, and if very familiar with the blowers. I just had my Novi 2K put in, the thing is a monster! very fast, & it still has some tuning in it! Your 1000 should not be too hard.

Here the whole time I'd give you a hand this weekend, but I gotta go to Scott AFB on Sunday..the spring swap is cake, I lowered the Cobra with BBK's, took me about 2 hours... I'm ordering all my piping today...hopefully I can hook everything up next weekend...if anyone knows where I could get some instructions for this thing, lemme know.. -------------------- 1965 Shelby Cobra 1993 Cobra 2012 F150 Raptor 2020 GT500 Posts: 6523 | From: Orlando FL/Redding CA | Registered: Mar 2002  |  : nitrousracing ¯ Member # 1346 posted                              I havent put mine on yet, but i just got a instruction manual.

Ike kows how to get there! I might be able to lend a hand. Is it a balldrive unit (SN93)? If it is, NEVER spin it faster than it's ratiing. And buy some PAxta-Trac fluid to add to the oil.
