What is the best/easiest F2 or F3 brackets to adapt to RB motor with motor plate and stock engine compartment. I have found many sbc, BBC, and sbf used for F2 and F3 prochargers.

I am guessing you bought a used procharger.

I did that.

Trying to get someone to help you with support and parts is absolutely cost prohibitive.

Bottom line; for $300 more I could buy a new and complete kit. So you have to be resourceful and make your own brackets, etc. The only help was to be charged full list price as a replacement part. These guys only want to sell complete kits.

My procharger is still sitting on the shelf, waiting until I trip over a few required parts to move forward.

I have a bb chev mounting plate, etc. It won't take much to design. I have friend who have offered thick aluminum plate. The templates can be made out of plywood, then transfered to the aluminum.

I just don't have a lower pulley to drive the large M3 unit that I own. It is designed for 454-572 chev boat motors.


Too many cars, too many parts, too little coin, too little space to work in, too little time left to make it all happen! Update: down to one ride, still too many parts, a little more jingle in the pocket, gaining space, and it's going to happen this year!

No I have not bought anything yet. I won't have room for the reverse rotation off the front of the engine. I would like to compare a F2 with brackets to turbo system. I have a 4 link chromoly 3/4 chassis car that I would like to drive on the street.
