That doesn't look like the atkins kit unless you've done some switching around.

That a NA block or TII block?

Pretty cool looking.

That is not the atkin kit. I believe the atikin kit is carb and I believe (I saw this thread a while ago) that someone was making a supercharger but I never heard the results.

Well....

That's an Eaton blower, snout looks like current gen GM, but the housing looks more like one off of an older Ford Thunderbird SuperCoupe. Looks like a pulley boys modular pulley system with a custom cogged belt drive too....

If that is a TBird SC housing, did he integrate the air/water intercooler? I'd hate to think what that supercharger would do to detonation with much boost and no I/C.

edit: looked at the bolt pattern on the snout, and the one on my GTP, that is an older style snout. Doesn't look to have the teflon coated rotors either.

I think you guys ahve got a long way to go. Its not even plumbed into the intake tract, is it? It looks like it is just sitting on top of the keg.

All that's been done is the alternator moved and a cogged belt added. Hell, I did that when I ran my waterpump.
