Fox Body + GT500 Motor + Supercharger = Awesome



First of all, this car is a beatuiful example of a fox-body. Everyone is well aware of their potential to be fast, but too often are they content to leave the rest of the car looking like a ****box. I guess it would be unbecoming to have such a wealth of hardware under the hood without the exterior to match.

There's no dyno slip, but considering there's a 3.3-liter Vortech strapped to the intake AND it's running on E85... I'm just going to assume it's making about a bajillion horsepower at the wheels. Rough estimate.

Check it out on the blog here!

Lysholm makes the 3.3 twin screw for Vortech, I checked out their website last night and its for the GT500 only.


I'm pretty sure Whipple gets their components from Lysholm as well and that's reason the blowers look so similar.
