I know it sounds stupid but I was wondering if the vortech head unit will fit Paxton brackets? Where they bolt doesn't look that different.

Yea-I'm really curious about that too. Carroll does have vortech brackets for my vette to fit up a vortech, but at $600.00!!!!
So if I could just redrill one or two holes in my current sn series paxton bracket that'd be cool when I want to upgrade!
Maybe someone could draw a paper template off the vortech bracket and send it to me? Or if someone has access to both brackets-overlay them and see if it'd work?
Thanks!
