It rolled off the line last month. The guy pulled it with 2236 on the engine. Technically it's a 2005. The Z06 is supposed to take a yr off and come back in 2006. It will sport a near 500 hp LS7. So, honestly it's a 2004, but 2005 sounds soooo much better.

In a heavy truck you need low boost

Buy the radix you'll be happier with it
I don't know much about the Radix superchargers. What kind of blower are they? Intercooled?

Ahhh gotcha. Which body style is the car? Wish I had the cash to pull the LS6 outta my new Vette for something bigger and better.

We do indeed. I would change the front accessories to the truck and buy the Radix. The Corvette kits have a diffent offset for the accessory drive and are more expensive. Since you will have the truck assessories, it will save you about 800-900 bucks.

I found the info on them. How is the intercooler set up on these things? I also assume it's an air to water, that correct?
