Will an LT4 blower fit an LSA/LS3 ?

Just wondering. Bonnet clearance is an obvious barrier for a regular 2.9L Whipple in a Monaro but I also found this: https://whipplesuperchargers.com/index.php?dispatc...

With heartbeat-style intercoolers and a larger capacity, it presents an interesting alternative.

I have a Whipple/Lysholm 2.3 on mine, and a 2.9 ready to go on very soon. They are the same height, so I see no problem with clearance... The 2.9 is about 40mm longer so I'll be fitting a shorter snout and placing it a little further back.

I am assuming a Monaro motor is same/similar fitment to a VT2 Commodore.....?

That 2.9 flows enough cfm for 1000bhp so that would keep you happy, wouldn't it?

Monaro has less bonnet/hood clearance than the R8 so blowers with valley intercoolers are not only less efficient, they also limit the size of supercharger head unit that will fit. I like the idea of a 2.9 or 3.3.

Very different...and given how the angles look, would be very hard to adapt it for older style heads.

The LT4 looks like a much flatter angle ?

I think you're right.
