Ah well...life just got in the way. I should be starting this project shortly, after some unexpected health issues, that had me hospitalized for a few days.
Blower is sitting on the garage floor, ready for me, when I am ready for it!
Getting anxious.

Gauges, and Gauge pod ordered.
Cant be boosted, without a boost gauge. Fuel pressure is a must, as well!
The gauges I like, are white face, so I had to get a new white face kit for the other gauges, as well.
The fuel pressure is electric...cant have fuel inside a street car.
I will start the project next week, picking off the smaller facets of the job, and then I will do the supercharger over the weekend of April 25,26, & 27.
That is the plan, anyway.

What do you think.
Leave the gauge bezel black, paint it to match the dark charcoal interior, or get it wrapped in a carbon fiber vinyl?
Let me know!

Upon opening the package, they sent me the wrong boost gauge, but this one will work.
I am not sure I like the color of the paint I used, but we will see. I can always change it.
Anyway, project not necessarily done, so I will call it "pending".

Took another step in getting the S/C build underway, by installing the heat exchanger.
Very straight forward, and all parts included, including fasteners.
I am already liking this kit!

All wires are run where they need to be, not hooked up yet, though...Boost-a-Pump installed, and wires run...all gauges ready to connect.
