More pics from Summer cruises
Sunday C&C(coffee and cars)
The guy that sent me the pics said that I should rename the car to "Holy $hit !" when I asked him why he said " that's what most guys say when the look in the trunk ", LOL

Jim and I hear this about 50 times a day at the shows we attend. I want to get a pin-hole camera and videotape a few hours of a show, i'd end up with a 5 min long "holy **** " montage.
Im board and I have a few ideas .... so its time for the choptop to phone home . See ya soon Archie and i'll call you during the week to go over a few ideas for The Perfect Union v3.0.

Archie get your ADVIL ready..... change of plans for the Perfect Unions visit to the toy shop in IL ...... time to start the R&D.... time to start the phone calls to Street and Performance ......whats the new plan you say? All I will say is this......
good luck with this one. I hang with the GTO club here in Va Bch, we have a few guys with superchargers. They have been eyeballing my car and trying to figure out how to make one fit (with the least amount of cutting/welding). May be worth it to see about turning it around like we do with the intake and figureing out how to use the pulleys that are on the back side. Not sure if they turn the correct way, but maybe they make a set of compressor's that turn backward.

One of these. Or one of the models where the throttle body actually mounts on the rear, instead. Or a custom snout, and pulley cap, for the blower. If you want to pay the money to do it, it's not that hard to do.
Any tranny upgrades planned to handle the additional output? I know I get more questions on how my 6 speed handles the LS3 than anything else, but LS9 power levels will really test the capacity of the F40.

Jim
I have a lil something planed if my upgraded ( cryo treated) F40 grenades, but it needs to happen first to justify the make over. Plus I want to see just how much this F40 can handle so we can answer that question for those who have swaps and want to push it to the limit.
I think the hardest part is going to be talking Archie in to doing it

This is for illustration purposes only, it shows a pulley and intake setup. And no we will not try to run with that high of an PSI, most supercharged LS7s run at 5 - 8 PSI
And the R&D begins, PM sent with more info and other blower options.......This is my favorite part of builds. Once we have a plan Im sure Archie will keep you guys posted
Whaaat, you must be kidding......Troy just get serious and kick the sh* t out of that blockage buton a serious note I will say a prayer for you , just stay positive and strong.

Just like building a car there is always more than one way to do something. I'm sure your Doctor will help you find the best way. Best wishes and Prayers going out to Troy and his family
