Feeler: Vortech + GOODIES
Originaly belonging to JimRHIT
Vortech Supercharger w/Spearco Intercooler with Approx. 5K Miles. I never put it on the car.
Only part missing is the drill piece needed to drill the oil pan.
(called a rotabroach can be found at NAPA)
Extra Fuel Lines
DEFI Boost
DEFI EGT
Shielded Crank Wire from Phunk
Autometer 2 guage pod
Autometer 3 Gauge pod (I have both)
1 step colder spark plug
Don't feel like doing the whole ebay thing.
The Reason:
If I decide to sell this kit it is only to take the money and buy a built motor.
I think I want to build and go the Turbo route.
I would be willing to ship everything. Have NO DOUBTS I am an honest person true to my word. Several members can vouch for me including the member I bought this kit from.

Hey Enthuziast,
Remember when I kept telling you to go the turbo route. You should have listened to me. I too bought the vortech, installed it, and 1 month later went the turbo route. I was getting flamed for trying to talk you out of the s/c, but look at you now.
Good luck on the sale.

Bump for Tom and a good kit 
Many around here, as well as myself, can vouch for him.
This kit is in tip top shape ... just waiting for someone to have some fun with it.
If I wasn't working on(saving for) my Turbonetics future right now, I'd buy this baby back from you.

Thanks Jim! Kit is in perfect condition.
Also if I wasnt looking for a built motor + turbo Id slap her on myself. I just know if I put it on I will want more power and not be able to have it.

Likewise. I have been through thourough floggings of a 400whp Z and it was not enough for me. Even turbo ... top end was just not what I was used to from my mustang days .. so I know I need at least 500+ ... so I am saving.

Didn't mean to come across harsh, but I tried to warned him that this might happend. He never even drove the car with the vortech and he already wants more power....imagine when he feels it. Here is my oringal post about recommend he get a turbo instead of a s/c. I got flamed for try to convert Tom when I was trying to help him from making the same mistake I made.

Here are the additional parts I would recommend.
Plenum
headers
exhaust
wideband
boost gauge
oil pan spacer kit or baffled oil pan for safety.
I am deeply considering going APS TT. A TT kit is only a couple of grand more than a s/c with all the extras. I love my vortech, but you will want more. I thought I would be happy, but I feel like a drug addict that wants another fix
I recommend that you ask members on this board for a ride in a s/c and TT car and then make up your mind. If not you might find yourself in the same situation as me.

This is a 99.9% complete Satin kit. The only thing missing is the rotabroach.
Tom has added some extras to it as well. Also, this includes new fuel lines and such, since the ones I had were used ... so I got new ones from Vortech when I sold it.

Thanks for fielding that question Jim.
Yeah the kit is a beauty. I am not some stranger I have been on this board for years and stand by what I said. And that is the kit is in great shape and that any buyer here does not need to even think about getting scammed....it just wont happen.
Let me know if you have more questions

I am thinking of putting this on Ebay if I cant sell it fairly quick. Do you guys recall what the guy from England got for his?.....
Liek I said I would be happy to break even but if I cant sell it here I have no choice.

I thought you were gonna slap it on if you couldnt get your price?
eBay is great but I dunno how good it is for something like this especially if you are holding firm to your price. How many miles on this thing anyhow?

Here is the thing. I will slap it on if I cant get what I paid.
But what is the point of buying a built motor and than limiting yourself to belts?
I am confident i can get over 3K on ebay but it is a royal pain to take all the pics and list all the parts I have. I would also rather help a fellow member out just like I was helped.
Only 5,000 miles on the unit.
I don't doubt it would sell on here if I wait long enough but I just don't want to wait here for no reason.
I figure retail value on all the pieces I have listed is over $5,500.00 easy.

Just give it a few days. You just posted this up for sale today. Not everyone lives on the forums like us. I sold my vortech in 1 week for about the same price........don't be so impatient.
