I guess sometimes nice guys do finish last....after holding this kit for two different buyers, both "friends" of mine for multiple weeks each, it is back up for sale.

I have added some things to get the deal done. The complete kit, mass air, chip, smog pump bypass and a custom powercoated A/C and powersteering bypass will be $2000. I can take Paypal so that you can pay with a credit card, but you will need to pay the fees.

Good point, but it has been packed up since it was "sold". I do have a few. If someone is serious, I will have no problem unpacking it.

Yes, I have it. I actually listed it up on Corral last night. I will also be taking it to a swap meet next weekend. I'd love to sell it to someone on here, so let me know. If you want to talk on the phone about it, I can pm you my number.

V8Demon-pm sent.

Sorry, no trades, I need some money to pay off other parts!

If anyone is looking to get the kit cheaper, I can knock some parts off the list and save you some $$$.

That's odd.
Basically, we can take some of the add-ons out to make the kit more affordable. I could probably take $150 off and keep the Maxflow, $100 and keep the chip, etc.

You ran the same H/C/I I do now, correct?
Title: Complete Vortech Kit w/extras and exhaust
Post by: thundr306 on March 22, 2008, 08:22:36 PM
With the supercharger, I ran Edelbrock Performer 5.0 heads(small valve), Crane 2031 cam and Edelbrock Performer intake. Car was all motor 12.9's and 11.7's with the Vortech. I was always easy on my car, so I know an 11.5 was in it.

I saw the Trick Flow valve covers....Didn't really get a good look at the intake in your pic at first and couldn't make out the heads at all LOL!

BTW  that sweet ass engine bay!!!:burnout:
I have to do some # crunching as I have some brickwork and siding to do on the house.....If an off comes up somewhere else don't hold off on my account.  Take it.  I won't be offended and I'm not 100% as of yet;)

That's why I hated using those valve covers on Edelbrock heads! That intake is a RPMII. I bought off ebay and it was all messed up. I ended up sanding all the ribs off and smoothing it. Two holes had to be helicoiled. Then had it powdercoated black texture. Just another ebay purchase gone bad.

Sorry to hear that i got my holley system max2 off Ebay lucky for me it only had less than 50 miles on it. Did you pay a lot for the intake to start with even before the work to get it fixed?

I did everything except the coating. Mainly time, which I don't have.


Last chance for the Vortech before it goes out to the swap meet this weekend. Be great for someone here to get it. Like I said before, you could save alot of money by dropping some of the additional parts. Let me know soon!

Well, I guess nobody carries that kind of money with them to a swap meet. I want this kit gone, so anybody serious can pm me with exactly what they want and I will give discounted pricing!

I'll ask my neighbor down the street to spread the word to his racing buddies for you. Any luck on the corral?

Hey Jim where are you getting all this stuff powder-coated at? I wanted to get the trick flow upper intake I just bought power-coated black. Any idea on what that would cost?
Title: Complete Vortech Kit w/extras and exhaust
Post by: thundr306 on March 31, 2008, 04:13:30 PM
I have tried the Corral for a few items and it just never seems to work out.

I had a local shop do it for me. I would think around $40.
