Would this be practical on a forged bottom end motor in a C5. Just curious. It would look mean...if nothing else :D

ps - I've seen "The Road Warrior" :hihi:

Cheers,

You mean other than where it says: "**Does not fit under hood of C5 Corvette"?

It’s a shame it wouldn’t fit under the hood of the C5
I don’t suppose it would fit under the hood of a commodore either.

Cheers Scotty.

Yes, I read that.
I meant in terms of streetability - practicality.
Seems like belts are always a problem with Prochargers and Vortechs...but seem to be less of a problem with Maggies.
Thoughts??

Whipples fit fine on the commodores. The Starr Perforfance kit is a Whipple.
There are lots of Aftermarket C5 bonnets to fit blowers most seem to run upwards of about $700
At .5 bar (7psi) it works fine on a stock bottom end so a forged bottom would be fine as long as the compression was not bumped.
