I had to purchase 4 sets to cover the tooling so if someone needs/wants a engine set IM me.

Hmmm, I wonder if those would fit my CTS-V....?

A CTS-V lid and a ZR-1 blower lid have the same bolt pattern.

So will it bolt up... Yes. I would need to look at the sealing inside on the bottom of the bricks to the blower.

Mark I'd be interested as well for an LSA.

I think there would be a better cost efficient solution for a LSA. By the time you buy an LS9 blower lid and the C&R parts it would be very spendy.

I'll look at a LSA system to see if a better intercooler could be made.

It won't fit, the LSA has a single brick and it sits right in the middle over the opening in the supercharger. I already asked if C&R was going to do something similar for the LSA and they told me not right now but you never know. They would probably sell a ton of them if they did.

We do have a RetroWorx kit for single modules. For duals it's usually best to make your own mounting plate.

Mark, are you using the full fuel system during the dyno runs for validation?

This is a great thread. Amazing work on an already awesome '69. A lot of great ideas here. Keep it up Mark.

Carl

That is the plan. We will use the tank in the dyno cell and start with 100% gasoline then go to E85 then look at blends (E50, E25...) To make sure the flex fuel sensor is working correctly.

It is a bit more work to run the system in the cell but then you can control everything.

We will also A/B test the bigger intercooler bricks.

Still a lot of little details to work out.

Mark

On a side note we fired up the hoist last night. No more rolling around on the shop floor.

You'll never go back to jack stands and creepers. I used to refuse to go to my buddies houses to help them --- they HAD to bring the car to me so we could use my lift.
