Wille: Supercharged 305

What super charger do you use and what did you do to your car to accept it? From what I know Paxton and Vortech is an 88 to 92 SC. You have a 1987 IROC as me. Did you change to SD? What kind of rotating assembly. You link is not working.

Tom,

If it wasn't for a friend of mine, I would have never seen your post because I have NEVER visited the Motor Swap board (until now).

I used to have a Paxton SN92. I now run a D1SC from ATI. I had to convert the v-belt system to serpentine first.

Paxton makes kits for 1985-87 (v-belt) and 1988-92 (serpentine). Vortech and ATI only have kits for the 1988-92.

No. Still MAF.

Stock crank and rods. Forged pistons. Compression ratio is 8.912 to 1.

I just tried it and it worked for me. I don't know why it didn't for you. Try back in about one month for all new updated pics.
