I have done a lot of research on the lsa supercharger but have not seen anyone install one on a ls3 . I called my chevy dealer and picked up the zl1 supercharger removed my intake removed the dowel pin from the blower intake. {pin location is not the same from the ls3 to the lsa heads}. after I installed the blower the pulley on the blower lined up with the ls3 drive pulleys. I removed the stock tensioner and built a tensioner into the alternator mount so that the belt that drives the accessories drives the blower just like the after market blowers do. this will cut the cost of having to buy a complete new drive and will free up some more power! going to speed inc next Monday to see how much power it puts down after a tune.

Interesting! Can't wait to see how it turns out

Like seeing custom builds like this.Originally posted by psicamaro View Post
How much did the blower run you? And what injectors and fuel system did you go with?

I have around 3200 in the hole system but I buy from dealer 32% off list . I used zl1 pump and injectors a bosh pump and zl1 intercooler I also installed a blue belt from gates. by using the ls3 lower pulley it cut the boost down a little about 4% under drive from stock zl1 but with 11-1 compression that's not a bad think still will make 8- 9 pounds of boost! I will try and post some photosComment

Very cool
11:1 compression? Did you put a thinner head gasket on ?

looking forward to the results.Originally posted by psicamaro View Post
Are you concerned at all about temp issues with the higher comression and added boost? the Zl1 compression is dropped down very low to 9.1:1 to compensate for the boost. 11:1 will create more heat by itself, and then adding 8-9psi on top of that is going to be hot!

Stock LS3 = 10.7
Stock L99 = 10.4
8-9 lbs of boost with a proper/safe tune should not be an issue.Comment

Oh I am aware of stock compression.
He stated earlier he bumped compression up to 11.1. That's why I asked the question I did.
