why the hell are you removing the PS pump and A/C compressor to run the superchargers?


well i dont use the aircon ever depending on how much stress gets put on the motor by the ps depends if i keep it or not, like have u revved a clutch fan car then taken the belt off it its so much more better

dont mean to cut ur grass mate... but i think u should learn more about forced induction before waking up posts saying what ur GOING to do...... good luck with it all.... but i think u should keep the P/S and i wouldnt worry about the exhaust system u have planned... i would speak to a forced induction specialist and find wot exhaust set up would work best with ur induction and engine setup....same goes with the cam.... find out what will be the best lift for the superchargers u have... and also if u want to lower u compression get all this s**t done before u put the motor in... as taking motor in and out costs alot in labour........... all the best... be sure to post up dyno graphs and 1/4 times wen u are done......also wot gearbox/tailshaft and diff u runing... i would be inclined to take a look at these also and wot they can handle......

AZZA

p.s --- make sure ur brakes are good
