gmfan24 Posted September 2, 2016 Author Posted September 2, 2016 I also have no intention of doing burnouts. 265/70R17 tires are expensive enough
gmfan24 Posted September 3, 2016 Author Posted September 3, 2016 Well the LS9 idler pulley didn't work out any better, but I did get my upper hose sorted out with a splice and 2 hoses
gmfan24 Posted September 6, 2016 Author Posted September 6, 2016 Yay, got more goodies in tha mail today. A set of used LSA/LS9 injectors. Cost was $211.98 shipped
gmfan24 Posted September 7, 2016 Author Posted September 7, 2016 Surprise, surprise! My 3 week package turned into 6 days! It's a 4GL112-010 intake assembly. I'll get more pics when I get it home and unpacked.
gmfan24 Posted September 8, 2016 Author Posted September 8, 2016 Was doodling at work today, trying to figure out how to do the discharge tubing.
gmfan24 Posted September 8, 2016 Author Posted September 8, 2016 I'm leaning towards the top one. Less pieces, less connections.
gmfan24 Posted September 10, 2016 Author Posted September 10, 2016 After much research, I no longer have to worry about belt walk with the idler pulley that mounts to the supercharger. AutoZone number 231084. Application is 1991 Corvette VIN 8. Cost is 21.39. 76mm/3" OD with flanges. Only thing I don't like is that it's composite as opposed to steel. Time will tell the durability story. Either way, I sourced it locally, so it shouldnt take long to replace in the event of failure.
gmfan24 Posted September 11, 2016 Author Posted September 11, 2016 Not impressed with the stability of the bearing in this pulley. ?
gmfan24 Posted September 13, 2016 Author Posted September 13, 2016 A more refined sketch of my proposed discharge Yes, I occasionally do work at my desk during the day...
gmfan24 Posted September 14, 2016 Author Posted September 14, 2016 Got the first piece of my discharge today from Pegasus Auto Racing Supplies. it was almost $44.00 shipped. I found similar items on ebay for much less, but I didn't like the feedback that the seller had received so here we are. 3" coupler with 1" sprout for the bypass valve connection.
gmfan24 Posted September 14, 2016 Author Posted September 14, 2016 Tomorrow I should be getting my 2.75"x3" 90 degree coupler, and my 4"x3" 90 degree coupler from Silicone Intakes, and from Summit, my Autometer wideband & Boost/Vacuum gauges, Autometer pillar pod, weld-on AN-8 fitting and AN-8 cap. There's a tool store near me that also sells t-bolt clamps. Gonna check it out this weekend.
gmfan24 Posted September 15, 2016 Author Posted September 15, 2016 More goodies as promised. Boost/Vacuum Gauge, Wideband Gauge, Pillar Pod, Weld-on AN Fitting, AN Cap Funny sticker on Boost/Vacuum Gauge. I don't know how many of these I passed up on ebay because the needle was off. Glad I bought the gauges at Summit when I did though, because I will be getting $30 in rebates. Score! AN-8 Weld-on Fitting and Cap. And my other silicone couplers, with the one I got yesterday... Yay! They match!
gmfan24 Posted September 15, 2016 Author Posted September 15, 2016 Just a little update. I ordered a set of top mount injector spacers from Fuel Injector Connection this afternoon. Pics, of course, when they arrive.
gmfan24 Posted September 18, 2016 Author Posted September 18, 2016 Welp, my first design discharge is not viable due to space limitations. Back to the drawing board...
