Default procharged LSx

anyone did this? LM4 is in, looking for procharger fitment options. don't think f-body kit will work bc of driver side clearance problems, truck kit won't work bc i want to keep the stock hood. considering vette or gto kit. once i have a plan i will get the corresponding FEAD and then look for a good deal on a charger kit. any ideas?

I doubt you will find a kit designed for another vehicle that will work without modifying it. You may be able to find a mounting bracket that will work and then fabricate the rest. Have you thought about a roots blower setup? It would require some modification of the firewall but that's probably easier than fabricating a piping and intercooler setup.

i think i will go with a vette procharger, it mounts on pass side. i will deal with routing mods.

Why not just a little S480?

Whatever you decide to do, POST PICS!!!

There's already one out there and I'm currently doing the same to another Impala that I picked up. Here are some links to the one that's already been done. He's on the board here. Don't know the specifics of the setup he used. I'm doing mine with the C6 FEAD and blower for the same....
