Default Blown LS6

I am installing a ProCharged (D1SC) LS6 on the new hydroformed sub frame from DSE. My engine is being built by Golen Engine Service. I am purchasing all FAST equipment, which is almost a grand cheaper going through Summit, and I am using MSD ignition. This is not the cheapest way, by far, but it's going to run sweet.

Ok coming in late on the thread but just now pulled the trigger on an LS7 for the vert with a 4l60. Had to edit this because I just looked at my logged name. I've never been a "junior", somehow it makes me feel youthful, I'll think about that after my nap.

What mounting brackets are you using to mount the Procharger? Custom brackets or a production Procharger kit?

we just installed a carb'd LS2/T56 setup in a 67 RS Convertable. We used Hooker adapters and headers with some mods to the frame bracket location was a pretty straight-forward fit. We re-fabbed the "bolt-in" trans x-member to get the geometry and fit right. All in all it's a pretty simple simple deal.

Our next candidate is a 69 RS twin turbo'd LSx with a bunch of the fun goodies like aftermarket PCM, paddle shifted 4L60, drive-by-wire, twin fuel system etc. Should be a fun wiring project!!!

Nothing like having a 800hp 93 octane pump gas motor. That starts on the turn of the key every time. I drive the piss out of mine. Its a LQ4 6.0 with ported heads and F1A, backed up by a T56 with a Spec Stage 3 plus. It drives like a stock LS1 till it starts to build boost then the tires are useless. Here is a pic.
