I really like mine got it here off a member for 500 ...very easy install

Honestly if your going to build it to hold boost get it sleeved it will last a lot longer and be more forgiving for that once in awhile oops while being more $ its well worth the piece of mind to know you have something that should hold up to qanything your going to throw at it not to mention...

3:31 work very well with supercharged applications its a proven combo on many cars out there

Don't use the canned tune on a supercharged application Always have it tuned by a good tuner you wont regret that

He's looking for info on an automatic shifter for the 6R80 trans swapped into an earlier s197 . Currently still no option I know of other than what is discussed in the swap thread in another section here

Ive had my Vortech on the car for 5 years now makes good power (720) and has been totally reliable ..Like he said its a choice with a good tune Eaton for you works ...others have had just as luck with other brands

Honestly the 6 speed manual isn't the way to go ..yeah I have one and if I had it to do over again I would have gone auto all the way..Ive not had issues with mine but overall performance auto outshines the manual all day long

I'd give Vortech a call in the long run its going to be much cheaper to replace a blower than change an entire system. They make many blowers that should suit your needs.

Thanks guys yeah tunes not trash its a good one safe ect written by one of the best . I think i'll add a can of octane and start it and drive like a grandma we shall see lol

I think theres a pretty good thread on the 6R80 up in 4.6 tech from what Ive read there is currently no good aftermarket shifter available for your combo

I never thought Id let the car sit as long as it has but its going on 13 months since the car was started or driven. It has roughly 3/4 of a tank of gas . is it too far gone to carefully start up and drive say under 40 miles an hour? Its a 2011 gt with a Vortech V3 tuned by Ken B when he was...

I would look up Ken at Palm Beach Dyno hes had pretty good success with this swap.

For the 5.0 there is Lund , Palm Beach ,VMP in no particular order all 3 are good reputable tuners

bottom ends and heads are better on the newer cars they are holding a lot more hp on stock blocks

Contact Terry at Beefcakeracing.com he can get you all of that stuff plus more and his customer service is way better than brenspeed.
