a SC'd 2.4...nice. then you'll be a true SS dude! the nice thing about these ecotec's is they are pretty strong internally so all you need to get is the SC stuff! nice. the 62 eaton is the on on the 2.0 right?

i've taken an engine completely apart before and put it back together with someone else but i've never added a supercharger and i've only done that once before to that extreme and wasn't the most comfortable

i got a buddy that helps me with my car when i need it who was a service manager at friendly chev when i bought my car and left to start his own custom shop. i think jeff met him when we had our meet at the mall of america but he may be willing to come down, drink a little, and work on the car

yepo. the m62 is right off the lsj.

looking at adding 60lb's, 2.8 pulley and meth injection along with everything. numbers wise, i'm shootin for 280-300 (very possible considering im pusing 180ish as is)

the only problem i'm going to have is the drivetrain. its **** on my car. dunno if flywheel and clutch will do the trick or if i have to find something stronger and swap the whole thing out.

from lookin at the how-to... looks pretty straightforward. i've just never done anything this extensive before.

and i already have tuning lined up

So she only has 4 kids?

Wrap your tool. The last thing we need are some little Hoffa's running around. I could see them modding up everything they own.

"yea, this pacifier has a wicked tune, and the 18's on my stroller are pretty bad ass too. I'm gonna put a H/D/E combo on my crib next month right after I change out the slushbucket tranny on it." -Hoffa Jr.

and just think, if he broke his arms in an accident it'd just be another reason for him to use his beer helmet. i'm sure he wouldn't mind that.

just take one of jeff's zip ties, an ss badge, turbo the little sucker along with a tune and you could have a lil fun

Hey Guys, Im testing the waters for selling my kit to see if there is any interest, The kit would include everything that came with the GMPP kit when i bought it, plus the cobra heat exchanger, pump and all hoses, 2.0 lsj alternator, 3.0 pulley installed on blower, GM flashed computer (manual trans), you would be getting a bolt on and go system capable of running 13's providing you can get traction, I would like to get 2200 for everything, Thanks, Josh
