Almost there

[XtremeS10]

So here's the update guys... after some cutting and chopping, the blower fits! I am working on mounting the boost a pump, wiring that, wiring the driver for the injectors, gonna finish up the fuel lines, finally mount the blower for the last time, possibly relocate the battery, and mounting a vacuum pump.

1. I don't have any ports for vacuum on the blower so I want to run my own 12v electric pump, is 20hg enough or should I run the 25?

2. On the Velocity Turbo Systems gasket for the blower, do I remove the O ring or do I just place the gasket on top?

That looks great. Like she said, that thing is huge.

Is there a motor under that blower somewhere?

I'll bet Tob, isn't feeling so bad about "adjusting" his firewall with a 2x4 after seeing this!

Ouch!!!!

:burn::bored::kaboom:. i love it man, good job

 

[XtremeS10]

Ouch!!!!

Its not so bad, cobra jets don't even have that faux firewall at all!

So 20hg or 25 for the brakes? Anyone with a VTS gasket did you keep the o ring or did yoi get rid of it or use sillicone?

Holy crap what the hell is that... Lol

This is the 4.0l competition blower off the cj, not really for street cars like the street version lol

Extra parts and unintended weight reduction! :rolling:

 

[09Troublemaker]

wow....I was good until I saw that cut job...LOL

congrats on the blower!

I know when I had my recent motor issues they couldn't lift the blower off from above. On the rebuild the entire motor assembly got dropped out the bottom and I don't think any of the firewall got cut.

Your by pass is side mounted while mine is rear mounted since I have the actual CJ blower and you have the street version haha, I just jumped on mine way earlier and had it around so thats what I got :beer:

You can't even see the cut behind the blower with the plastic pieces in place so I don't even mind it one bit, its in the name of horsepower!

So I still haven't decided on which vacuum pump, anyone??

And still haven't heard from anyone about the VTS gaskets... anyone??

wow!!!!

Hehe. I knew somebody would pick up on that.

If it were me, I'd look into adding a portion of the cutout piece back up on top (mig, grind, filler, paint) so that there was a hole but the top would be there to tie it together. But he's right, you don't see any of it...
