5 Years with a GT500 blower on my LS swap G body

[@shawng7902]

Its crazy that this has just now become a thing. If you've had it for 5yrs Id have to say you are the pioneer of doing this swap for sure. Might be your company or design doing it, Demuse engineering. I just seen Richard do the dyno runs on this set up a few days ago and it works amazing.

[@travispfannmuller7717]

Very impressive package, awesome to see how you used your ingenuity and skills instead of a fat bankroll. Thanks for sharing

[@colestowing8695]

Ive been looking at a lot of older conversions for these blowers and this is one of the nicer ones ive seen. Overall a really nice car....gotta admit im a bit jealous👍

[@ottomechb]

Found your videos after watching the movie "House of the Rising Sun" and seeing the Pontiac 2+2 Aero. I knew of the Monte Carlo Aero and thought at first the car in the movie was one of them disguised. I had to do some research. Great car! Great job with the swap!

[@myoneblackfriend3151]

I have seen them for $1300 these days. Thank you for sharing.

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

Yeah that's on par for what I see. My honest opinion is that it's not worth a penny over $500. $1200+ gets you deep into a nice turbo that's a lot more capable.

[@coltengottschalk1049]

Richard holdner just made a video on this they have adapter plates for them now

[@jimfryar1]

Nice job, I wanna do this to my truck (04) and my 6.0 rock bouncer!

[@gyffjogofl7676]

What did you do to lower air temperature? I didn't understand.

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

Water to air heat exchanger under the supercharger in the intake manifold.

What is that that's bolts to the supercharger that's under the plate ? What did you use for the bottom to bolt to the heads ?

[@jacobdavis1979]

Id love to hear more about the AC compressor setup. Trying to put AC on my 79 Malibu but I have no room up top with the TS supercharger in the way. Love your build.

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

I have a home made bracket with a sanden compressor. Alan Grove components makes a low mount passenger side bracket to mount a sanden compressor but depending on where you have your engine it might run into the frame. I run my compressor off the front 6 rib truck balancer. A TBSS compressor and bracket also fits.

[@My0186]

Man you forgot to mention the 3rd pedal and Stuck shift👈😂

[@speedocity3778]

Is their an adapter plate for an Eaton supercharger to bolt up to a 5.3/4.8

[@taylormade4049]

Yes

[@IGAspireGaming]

Demeuse engineering makes a plate, but It requires a mag tub as well.

[@shawng7902]

wow!!!! M122 is going for around $2,000 now on ebay. Dont know that they are selling them but that's the asking price. Time to go back farther to old GMC 671s or 2 of those Pontiac 90s or what ever they are lol

[@terrencekyles5051]

How’s it running now and yes the prices have skyrocketed!

Very clean setup looks Factory just saying

What is the lower pulley set up again.

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

Stock pickup with the rear 4 AC drive increased to 8 rib on my lathe

[@LS1NNOVATIONS]

Intercooler in the manifold

[@V1_Batman]

How much would you charge E to make me the same parts you made for your?

[@kevinwest3689]

Vary cool, going to LA via Omaha for power, but definitely cool! Ruffly 16lbs of boost on this blower, will get you ruffly 100 more HP then 8lbs on a TURBO with your stock block crank rods junkyard lq4 with BTR stage 2 Cam and Springs. But I like things that are different it doesn't always have to make sense. But saying that... personally I'll probably go TURBO= - $ +power @ ⬇️ boost but ...yours is purdy durn neat.

[@Bradofmaccly]

Would you be willing to sell that cad file?

[@juanmichel4629]

I just got my LS 6.0 and planning to do the same configuration 6.0 + gt500 supercharger. Do yo know how many HP/Torque reaches it? I like your Job, thanks for share

[@MrBlackbutang]

How you make g body go fast . Just add ford part’s 😊❤

[@4funner66]

Man. I wish I could find a $200 M122. They’re all $1000-1300 where I am

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

Yeah I bought it in 2015. They aren't worth $1000+. I'd rather put a turbo on it for that price. $400 tops. At $1000+ and all the intake manifold parts and blower drive you get into used Magnusson kit prices for something you have to fabricate and assemble.

[@watsisbuttndo829]

Its called the "richard holdener factor". He just uploaded a vid with an adaptor kit and dyno runs.

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

@@watsisbuttndo829 to be fair these blowers have been annoyingly overpriced for about 3-4 years. No idea but in 2013-2016 they were reasonable and then everyone decided they were $800+.

The 2 lines coming off the back left side looking at it, what are those tubes for? Where did you tie into for the bypass valve?

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

Those are the water lines for the aftercooler. I tied the bypass valve signal into one of the small barbs that comes out of the intake manifold.

[@baby-sharkgto4902]

Very nice

[@DanielsDesign]

so no intercooler? just moving the sensor post blower got your temps sub 140?

[@robbyfuller4342]

Sub 140 is been nice....

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

No, it has an intercooler now. It didn't for the first year and had high (200+f) intake temp

[@ericperry4934]

What pullies did you use , on which accessories. Exactly?

[@hackjobhotrodshop5075]

99-06 pickup accessories, custom blower pulley from smoothflow machine, 95ish Mercedes SL600 idler for the blower and a newer dodge promaster van idler for the main drive. Custom brackets for mostly everything and a sandeen AC compressor.
