Just looking over the posted pics in more detail....



Wow, hot rod style Roots blower! Looks like its atop a VHR (telltale oil filler cap - or am I missing the extra pair of cylinders? Laff....) I'd be curious to see a dyno chart on this versus a Vortech/turbine style blower equipped car! Lawdy, where da hood scoop at?!

I want to say he was somewhere near 400 with both torque and ponies, but he said the main thing he loved about it was the instant response. As for a hood scoop, well...

OK, I get that make-room-for-blower-hole-inda-hood but when I think of a blown hot rod and hood scoop, this is what I think of....

...bug catcher butterflies and a pair of 850 double pumpers. The Z's intakes are under hood! Hahahaha.

But yeah, much as I like turbos, I love superchargers. Instant power. My factory blown cruisermobile scares the poop outta me at times.

Thanks for the pic Heel till I die!

Shot this pic midday before the exhaust competition.

Great event as usual and pretty crazy at the deck party! Lol

Brad G has spent a fortune on that ride, RJM sponsored him with a closed deck. Somehow "someone" beat that Z33 for 1st Place Mild 2017. Can't imagine who that have been...��
Edit-
He did take a well deserved 1st for Z33 Wild this year.

Nice shot! I saw your Z parked around Fontana, but I don't think we ever officially met.

There's always next year! We booked our reservation for ZdayZ 2020 at check-out. Hope to see you there!
