Its alive
Its did fire up on a base map not vey well though. I also lost all oil pressure and quickly shut it off. I had my eyes on the oil pressure when I saw it happen. The remote filter set up would not seal so I had to put an oem delco filter on the block.
Crazy thing is I had to buy very expensive fuel fittings and it is very hard to explain how I managed to make npt and AN fittings work with a metric fuel system, lets just say part of the system uses a air compressor quick disconnect half way back to the tank on the return side. Very expensive fuel set up all -6an.
All work done by me, tech edge wide band is working great.

I love it. It just the B>S smog crap here in Calif that I have to deal with. That setup would involve too much retrofitting and would prevent me from quickly changing things back for smog inspections. I'm jealous.

Everything looks really really good but what's with the green tape on the V-covers???
Is the tape some sort of pressure test?
See if crankcase pressure goes to high???
Or just you havnt picked up a couple of fancy Vcover filtes yet and tapes the holes over.

He won't get 5th/ want to get 5th. By time he reve'v out 4th, he will be more then ready to shut it down. I bet around the top of third it will be scary fast.

Just a question...if you don't mind. how much did that S/C set you back, must have been a pretty penny. I would like to see how it would do with a MPFI setup instead of the TBI. That would be cool.

Fax the company. He was selling the carbed supercharger kits about a year ago on sale for$1200.
MPFI is possible with this set up , but roots blowers need like the fuel added above the rotors. Something to think about.
Buy it new.

I can't wait to hear what your truck will do in the 1/4 and what kind of power you will be making, both on the spray and off the spray.
Let's show some people what 660s can do.

I was thinking about letting forums know, but last time I posted there, my post was moved twice, since it seems they didn't think it dealt with "V6 Performance" 
, so what Forum should I post that in?
Thanks for the compliments. I can't wait to get the set-up tuned and dialed in.Oh and now you know what you have to beat. hehe.
I still can't get over how your set-up looks, just mean, I bet you will get similar looks as I get, you know the one, the "WTF is that?" look.

Put it in the forced induction area and title it 13.8 , it should turn some heads over there.
Yeah you know what I think since you call yours the "James" Im gonna name my engine the "Rodney" .
Yeah the local area is filled with shop hoes , I expect plenty of rude comments on how its sad I dont have a v8, or shoulda done a v8.......
It would be nice to line our trucks up sometime.

2) What turbo are you using, Raven?
3) How much boost are each of you running?

I'm game for lineing them up, maybe at the next 60degree meet?
We'd have to get that on video.

Doward , I havent actually weighed mine. I would guess like 3300 plus minus say 150 -200 lbs?
I havent measured boost yet since it is a few steps away from being on the street , but it should be in the 10-12 psi area maybe more. I have a bigger pulley incase it hits 3bar and I have to lower it.

2) a Garret T-3 from a mid eighties Turbo Coupe comp A/R or .67 turbine of .68 IIRC, I don't remember the trim off hand.
On that 13.8 pass I was about 7 PSI, in 3rd and 4th gears.
Nixon1: yeah exactly what you said, I was also having fuel issues at the top end way too low of an AFR between 15-14:1 and causing some detonation.
I am planning on some chassis changes, still stock suspension, with an open dif and 3.73 gears right now.
But I digress, plans for next year.

Why does a Roots Style S/C need the Fuel put in above the blower? i wouldn't think that it matters. Kinda like any other setup, as long as you are measuring the amount of air correctly, you should be able to put the fuel in anywhere and be all right. Don't know much about it personally, still taking in as much as possible, but I can't see why it would matter. Please Explain. Thanks.

I think it's usually a fitment issue, in a lot of cases with a top mounted roots style blower and a narrow engine, it's hard to fit injectors below the blower and have them at a decent angle.

Yeah, I've been to that site plenty of times. Its the site that inspired me to buy this 84 Blazer from my brother after he over heated and warped the heads on the old 2.8. He sold it to me for $400) I had a 73 monte carlo with a perfectly running 350 engine. So I swapted. ( the Monte was in a front end accident, after some bozo in a Honda decided to make a left turn in front of me..) That was about 3 years ago. About a year ago I got the turbo itch on the Blazer. So I rebuilt the engine to prep for the Turbos.
By the way that's a hell of a nice looking truck you got.
