Project "Blown HD" my 6/8 drop/shortblock/heads/cam/blower/tranny install
#2783
The good news is that there is not a whole lot of custom anything that needs to happen this time since the injectors are the same brand/type I had before but in a short design, boost level will be about the same(calculated) so the break-in tune loaded will work just fine. I will have to figure out something for an intake tube but that shouldn't be terribly involved. Just install the blower, wire her up, connect the fuel lines, and then "fire in the hole"!.................let's hope
I would not interpret what I posted as there being a common intake port, but simply that the lower tub is machined for the phenolic spacer or vise-versa, haven't seen the finished product yet.
no real benefit @ 10lbs of boost as far as I can tell, but certainly a desirable setup when going for the larger boost #'s. My whole reason for going this route was flexibility. This configuration allows me to do whatever I want up to 20+ lbs of boost on my 365 CID 6.0L.

so that being the case, in the future you have the option to do a cog style for all your pulleys in the front? makes sense, that would pretty much cancel out belt slippage entirely.

without getting onto the weeds, each belt drive has it own set of benefits, characteristics, and limitations. I'm just going with a setup that I think will work best vs. the least amount effort to install on my current 8 rib setup. This may prove to be sufficient or I may need to go a different route to get everything to play nice
