VK56TT would be SICK! Reminds me of the Top Secret G35, I believe they did a swap like this a TT'd it.

Were you planing to stick N/A, TT, or throw a blower on it?

Nice work!

Go with a huge vortech or Procharger! eveybody does turbos these days. a V8 with a big a$$ centrifugal blower is just pure nastiness!!!

how about a Vortech V7 with JT-trim impeller. sounds like the just the right blower for you.

Very Very nice Jeremy, it makes the Hinson LS2 swap obsolete. This has the same power as the Chevy LS2 and it's a much simpler/cheaper installation.

honestly where we have it mounted, if we flip the intake manifold around so the TB is in the back, i think the 07 Z hood would clear it on a Z, its really not THAT bad of a fit.


if we get a smaller intake manifold, then the hood will shut for sure. the runner lengths on the stock VK are way way way tooo long for high hp and are geared for big tq numbers.
