m396 #00-011 Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Again, a much better "Wow" and clean factor under the hood compared to the ATI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundowner Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Ok man...what's the intro pricing?? And for a shade tree mechanic, are the instructions clear and correct?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbyrne Posted December 3, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Just send an e-mail over or give us a call tomorrow for the introductory pricing. I think you'll like it The Vortech kits aren't to bad to install. They do a good job with their instructions so a person with basic mechanial skills can get through it. The kit I want for my Silverado HD looks like this but is made by Paxton. Just need to wait for them to finish the version for the '02s.

SilveradoSS04 Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Can you get a smaller drive pulley for more boost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbyrne Posted December 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Sure can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilveradoSS04 Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Sure can! What sizes do you have, how much more boost with each size, and price? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
56chevywagon Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Is this a self contained s/c or do you tap off the oil pan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbyrne Posted December 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 SilveradoSS04: I can check on sizes/prices on Monday. I believe they are around $75. How much more boost would you like to run? 56chevywagon: You have to tap the pan but this kit comes with a new tool that makes it much easier than in the past.

tbyrne Posted December 18, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 Sorry, I forgot to post back in here. If it's not writen on my desk or in an e-mail that I can quickly see I end up forgetting about it sometimes. It's either to much to do or I'm getting older This kit comes with a 3.33" pulley and smaller sizes are available down to about 2.6/2.7" I believe the sizes are 3.1, 3.0, 2.95, 2.85 and 2.75". They are $64.99 each. This kit is now available for the 4.8, 5.3 and 6.0 trucks. The only ones that come with programming are for the 2003 Escalade, Denali and Silverado SS. Programming isn't available for the rest so they get a $250. discount. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Vortec require a tap into oil or use funky extra fuel injectors or something strange like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
