This is a revised "universal" supercharging system designed for vehicles equipped with carbureted small block Chevrolet engines. Horsepower gains depend on boost levels, engine efficiency, etc., but can range from 30-75%. It offers improved application flexibility, increased supercharger mount rigidity and simple integration with existing OEM drive configurations. Installation time will also vary depending on application, but can range from 4-10 hours. This system has been verified to fit on 1970-1973 Camaro/Firebird (w/cowl hood), 1964-1972 Chevelle and 1955-1957 Sedan (BelAir/210 etc.) and 1968-1973 Nova/Chevy II.
Quality Features:
Horsepower gains, depending on boost levels, engine volumetric efficiency and other factors, range from 30% to more than 75%.
