I must have missed it, what et does it run? Like the car overall but the rear wheel/tires combo looks off to me.

I think the car looks awesome, my personal taste would dictate putting a smaller rim on the back. The choice of wheel combo that was made by the owner is obviously what he likes and that's all that matters.

No doubt the engine bay could be cleaned up some more with how they mounted a few things.

To be honest, I have been looking at procharger setups that fit under the hood of a Hemi Mopar, and there are very few people running them. I have a heck of a time finding anyone with specific info on them with pics of the install. I find a couple of 440 based ones like this one, but almost no Hemi ones.

Not my cup of tea either. Remember Pro Street in the late 70's/early 80's? It was all about spending tons of money on cars that would never see the track but looked fast standing still. Reminds me of that.

Yes. I talked with Terry at the SCS about that one and they were very happy with it...

But look or watch the vid and see how the whole thing flexes all over the place. Not sure I like that or that its stable enough to race with, and look how they notched the valve cover....I did not like that either. More like poor planning.

BUT...it would fit under my hood...And they didn't want me to use my Meziere water pump...It only fits their's...And they weren't sure about my front plate...Lots of ???? and few answers. It just seems like, if you want to do one, your on your own...

And its funny he made the comment that they sell so many of the other brands, and so few Mopar's they still had some of the original brackets from the very first BBM order....I want one, but at what cost and how soon would it be running...

That has been like the experience I had with the Supercharger store when I decided to convert my 496 to a blower. Since my engine block / head combo, with matched tall intake - are so tall I have abandoned any chance of it fitting under even the cowl hood unlsess I went with EFI and a 90* hat. Tried looking into that but the guy I talked with insisted that I also rewire the entire car to get stable currents for the Holley EFI. Blowing through a Dominator with the HUGE hat those take is well... get out a saw and make a hole and hope the hat poking through a cowl hood doesn't look too bad.

I have a front bracket that spaces the blower out into an A body that bolts to the front of the water pump. Would be nice if the SCS would make one as mine is steel and needs replacing. My desire is to tie it into the motor plate and have the front support also bolt to the frame rail. The Brodix B1s do not have accessory mounts on the front.

I doubt that Black hotrod with a blown 440 makes 1100 but those showcar guys don't have to back up their claims with timing slips and scale receipts.

I here you. Its almost like they never really perfected them any further because nobody runs them. I know I can make one fit with trial and error, but that adds up quick and it might be not be running this year...And if I lose anymore interest, I will just sell the car and buy a Viper. Gawd knows how many people would be interested in a V-code N96 4-speed Cuda with 13k original miles on it...

So when I was at BGR's today, we discussed my original plans, and I dropped some serious coin for a new combo we finalized today...Minus an F2 of course...Some day, I would like a boosted combo.

Why not go with the front mount procharger unit with a provolute? The other member did his silver duster with one, DJ's I think his title is.

everyone has their own taste, but there isn't a one of us that wouldn't like to take that thing to the local cruise night! Bad a$$!


It may be ugly, but it sure is slow.
