Hi I wouldn't do that to a vette but I have a 95 caprice cop car with a lt1 I'm thinking of adding a roots blower too. I looked into it. It would be a pretty cheap way to make power if you already had the blower. About all you have to do on lt1 is redrill a different intake bolt pattern or two different intake bolt patterns on the heads.The bolt patterns are not that different and most of the ports, pulleys and other stuff fit just fine. The only problems are with the injection setup [figure a accel unit could handle that] and the transmission being electronic[many ways around that] and having to rewire everything and hood clearence. Give the guy a little credit, I know what car I'd be looking at if it were in a car show!

What about a Paxton supercharger set up? Does anybody run one of those? Do they make a kit for Corvettes?

corvettes are reverse belt rotation from most chevy's not too manny make kits for them. The blower I was looking to use was the weiand small block truck kit. This blower has a long nose that lined up almost perfect with adding a pulley on top of stock balancer on bottom.

I dunno, I kind of like it. I'd rather see it on a track than the street, though. I couldn't get an accurate feel for the power/speed.

They do, but your better off with either a Vortech (which is what I'm doing) or a ProCharger Quote:
LOL I'm sticking with the Vortech, some have gone to a cogged setup though to keep the belt from slipping.  |
