Recieved my F1A today...

F1A recieved today, Install starts tomorrow. I test fit the bracket and I don't like it. Does interfere with my serpentine waterpump, So I need to purchase a vbelt waterpump and convert everything to vbelt to use with my procharger crank pulley.

12rib for the win.

anyone else install an F series? Any Tips?

Re: Recieved my F1A today...

Did you buy the Carb SBC bracket or the L98 bracket?

I was under the assumption other F series do. But the F1A shares the same diameter as the D'1 and P.

Let me know how it goes, and how your mpg is affected. Looking at getting one, but this will also be a street car.

faces towards engine. straight shot to carb.
no intercooler.
when it is intercooled, it will just wrap around and go down.

mpg will be hard to say, since my whole engine is modified.

ProCharger has a repositioner bracket that goes between the main bracket and the head that would allow you to move the main bracket up, down, left, or right by an inch or so either way. Thought this may help.
