Looking GREAT John !!

1 Muffler - and not 2 ? Interesting. More info and other pics plz ? Just wondering if the single unit flows enough air for your supercharged application. Might be a great solution for my project since I have almost zero space in the back to run mufflers. (looking at something like the C3 setup)

Keep up the awesome work Team NovaWerks !!

It is a stainless muffler design for a Power stroke or duramax engine. They go through one muffler. So I think we will have room to spare as far as CFM through the muffler. It is a DNA muffler. They sound pretty good. We had to completely rework both ends to make the merge into the muffler from 2 3" pipes to one 5.5" muffler.

I might have a better pic of the merge.

OH NO, You will be pulling it.
Build it now, I am sure you can afford it, LOL !!!!!!!!!!

Why go throught this whole build and do a stock internal LS7? They dont have a good track record stock with boost !

LOVE THE CAR BTW !!!!!!!!!! Cant wait till its done.

Procharger is telling us that there should be no issues as long as we don't get too crazy with the boost!:willy: :unibrow:

I know this sounds crazy but I've even contemplated pulling the LS7 and running a boosted LS3!(I know, I'm out of my mind!)

I was thinking of leaving it like that but Rodger would like to add a solid sheetmetal piece that will clear the hinge. Wadda ya think?

you could probably run a pretty seriously pumped up LS3 for the cost of that LS7... but then again, maybe with all the trouble you'd have to go through to arrange/make the swap it wouldnt be worth it.

for what its worth, a cammed LS7 sounds pretty amazing.
