Here is the finished cad model with the belt wrap diagram for our new passenger side mount D1SC (P1SC) Procharger supercharger assembly. The mockup is 75% complete on a 1970 TA.

Kit will use factory alternator and power steering and can be used with V-belts or can use the March 6 rib aluminum serpentine pulleys.

The kit is designed to fit the 1970 to 1981 F-body chassis, the 73-77 A-body and the 73 to 77 Grand Prix.

Kit has the option to run a Sanden AC compressor off a V-belt or off of a 6 or even 8 rib serpentine drive belt. For the low hood clearance and shaker provisions on the TA/CanAm we have an optional rear AC hose end cap for the Sanden compressors.

The kit allows the supercharger volute to be clocked as shown to go directly to a carburetor hat or be clocked low and go under the tensioner and over to the air to water intercooler that mounts in front of the passenger side fender well.

The Vortech Ysi and T-Trim passenger side kits will be next.

Any questions give us a call.

Looks good! We need more boosted Pontiacs out there.

I think that Luhn Performance has a real handle on the belt driven Supercharger stuff.

I heard that they have a couple of Turbo Cars that they are working on so it should be a good years for them next year in the press.

ps Guys have been begging for a boosted engine with A/C, P/S, etc for years.

[aronhk_md]

Mine has a/c and p/s........I want a car I can comfortably drive around a lot.

[torqjunki]

I thought this was already available! What kind of time frame are we looking at for completion? (f-body)

[Tom Vaught]

I think that 1st Gen F-Body stuff is all covered both with Vortech and Procharger hardware.

2nd Gen should be covered now (with Procharger stuff) based on the post above and Vortech/Paxton hardware soon to follow for 2nd gen F-Bird.

Very cool! How is the driveability with a properly set up carb?

[Skip Fix]

And Dave they like the Tomahawk for boosted Pontiacs so you are set there!

A properly set up blowthru will act just like a NA car, until your into boost =

Absolutely! CSU TTFMF!

Used their carbs in several applications in which they were used in Ironman and True Street competitions.

Lookin good LPI!!!

Has the ProCharger setup been checked for clearance using aftermarket control arms and/or the 'short' body bushings?

Hwy,

I can tell you that the procharger set up will clear the factory control arms for the driver's side mount. When I put TRZ's on I had even more room.

I would assume the same deal would apply.

[HWYSTR455]

Would be good to know. The Global West arms I have use the solid bushing, and with the nut, are much larger than the OE, or even some other arms out there. It's close with the brackets I have that Bruno used to make years ago. Also, if you run the drop body bushing like I and many do, it brings the hood down even closer. I don't believe I can run the '71 - up alt brackets, the hood makes contact. I'm not that happy with the brackets I have now, and fairly certain I'm going to have to do something about the idler location.

Well after a long road of design changes, prototyping and more redesign we finally have a passenger side supercharger kit that uses the stock/factory power steering and alternator locations and offers the option to run the Sanden style AC compressors.

This kit will work with the Procharger D1SC and F1 series superchargers set up at the 2 O'clock oil slinger location.

The kit will fit the 1971 to 1981 F body cars, the 1973 to 1977 A body cars and the 1973 to 1977 Grand Prix cars.

The Vortech passenger side YSi trim blower kit is next.

The system will work with the factory V belt steel pulleys. With a minor change to the crankshaft spacer the kit will work with the billet aluminum CVF V belt pulleys.

The optional 6 rib serpentine accessory drive kit (pictures to follow) will be available shortly to work with the March Serpentine type pulleys. This system when used with AC will utilize a reverse rotation water pump and a smooth back belt drive water pump pulley.

The brackets are available separate or as a complete assembly.

The system will allow the blower volute to be clocked up to go directly to the carburetor hat when used without an intercooler or the volute can be clocked to point downward and allow the tubing to go to the front of the car to work with an intercooler.

If you have any questions please give us a call or we will look forward to talking to everyone tomorrow out at Union Grove for the BOP days.

Hwy,

These brackets will clear the aftermarket control arms on the F body cars. The car I mocked this up on is a Pro Touring 70 TA with the air ride suspension and the "Strong Arm" tubular control arms.

When we use our carburetor Power Hat for the blow thru carburetor system we have a bracket that allows the use of the TA shaker assembly to work with the factory hoods.

This way when you open the hood the shaker is where it was meant to be.

The serpentine drive does lower the alternator and power steering. We are also looking at creating billet aluminum mounting brackets for the V Belt pulley arrangements which would drop the alternator and power steering to increase hood clearance.

This will also be useful if you try and put an older two bolt motor mount block in a 2nd generation F body car.

One of the main points of our system is the correct location of the idler and the multiple adjustable and directional change idlers.

With these in place we increase the belt wrap on the supercharger and crank pulleys substantially.

OUTSTANDING!!! I was just going to ask! I would love to see photos installed in a car. Would be nice to also see intercooled setups in the same body/chassis!

You have my undivided attention!

[LPI]

Thank you, we try.

Next pictures will be mocked up in the 70 TA.

Once that is accomplished then we will start plumbing for the intercooler and heat exchangers.

We will post pictures as it comes together.

[LPI]

Here you go HWY,

Brackets mocked up in a 1970 TA. The volute can be clocked to go straight over to the carburetor with no intercooler or it can be clocked in a downward direction to allow the piping to go to the front of the car and connect to an intercooler.

This car will have an intercooler system installed once completed.

Also you can see in the first picture our oil drain back block installed in the timing cover as this car will be running a Vortech YS series blower which is oil fed like a turbo.

These pictures also show the serpentine pulley Sanden AC compressor which will work with the reverse rotation water pump and March 6 rib serpentine pulleys to drive the alternator and power steering as well as the AC with one belt.

If you have any questions please give us a call.
