      1983 C10 Project

      Engine - Dart SHP Next Pro LS Iron Block fully skirted, all forged rotating assembly, RHS CNC 307 LS7 Cyl heads.
      Installed 4.5 Whipple front feed and currently machining a 2" spacer to install between Blower and Lower Intake. This will obviously increase air flow (if you have looked at these blowers you know the intercooler obstructs the intake ports) this is a tradeoff for hood clearance in most applications. This is the same for 2.9 and 4.5 blowers. My engine builder makes them for LS3 and LS7 applications.
      Wilson Manifolds -10 Fuel Rails (standard blower height will only allow for -6), Fuel E85. Should be on dyno soon.

      Following, building a 73 Stepper. Who built your 4l80? Did they do any mods internally?
