It brings in a couple other minor issues, but with a cam swap you can make the engine reverse rotation.
 
Started her up again to pump some fluids through her. She took a slight bit longer to fire but roared to life. The lady liked the sound but said she needed help in beauty, I replied I want to but it’s going to be about 20-30k to get it to where I want. Add another truck to that budget and it’s almost 50k :doah:
 
This thread make me sad, used to make me happy. Lack of time or space is a real project killer.


I keep going back and forth on getting the supercharger to work or going turbo. I have the supercharger so I might as well make that work is my thoughts but I think the turbo would be somewhat easier.

It depends on if you would rather build custom exhaust hot side with waste gate or hook up a belt, which one is easier?

Usually the belt, plus no lag.

I think the turbo may have more potential depending on what model, but they make bigger superchargers too.

Its preference, i think they both have advantages.

Turbo can be quieter easier.
 
I don't know if your SC is one of them. But one of the manufacturers makes a reversing kit so you can make them work in any config.
It's something in the actual SC gear box.
I found it when I was researching them for a BBQ build but can't remember who had it.

I called vortech and they said it would be easier to just buy a different one.

Maybe I'll do some research and see why
 
So I'm currently in the planning stages of getting the supercharger back on, I'm going to need to make a new bracket. Thinking of maybe trying to draw it up in CAD and send it to send cut send.

Anyone know of a free program I can use to do this with that won't take long to learn? @AgDieseler @ktmoutfront @folkenheath

Hoping to be back full time home in the next few months then it's garage shopping time. I need my own place again.
 
Progecad would work for a very basic design. Post up what you need for a bracket. Start with a rough sketch and we can go from there.
