ProCharger on LT1 in thirdgen - need help

I've tried to contact ATI for help and no luck. they wont provide any drawings, dimension, templates or anything. have to buy a whole kit... but the kit wont work for my setup.

I have a 383 LT1 in my 92z. Has anyone put a procharger on an LT1 in a thirdgen? if so where did you mount the blower and would you mind helping me out in providing pics/dimensions/info?

I want to mount the blower high on the driver side. obviously i need a custom bracket but i have NOTHING to work with lol. i have no idea of the mounting bolts/position of the blower, i want D1SC, and how big it is to ensure appropriate location.

if anyone has any technical info/dimensions/drawings or can get some of these dimensions it would be greatly appreciated. i will have time this winter to mock things up and dont want to pay hundreds or thousands for a shop to do this work that can simply be done at home with some time.

thanks!

High on the drivers side has been done, search for B body installs.

I dont see why you wouldnt just buy a used C4 vette kit, swap to vette accessorys, should be able to round up everything cheap enough.

Re: ProCharger on LT1 in thirdgen - need help

Is that a custom made bracket or slightly modified available bracket that I can get from ATI? Problem is that they won't sell me an individual bracket. Have to buy a kit. Quite stupid actually but whatever...

All help is much appreciated.

They'll sell you the SBC main bracket and repositioner bracket like in that picture. You just need to get a hold of tech instead of sales. Give me your email address and I may be able to help you with a drawing.
