Supercharge my KL-ZE
Has anyone supercharged their KL-ZE? if so how did they make the S/C brakets that go on the left side of the engine. I already have the S/C drive shaft comming.

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
If you are asking questions like this you may not be ready to boost yet. Just because you have a sc in your hands does not mean your set, that's prollythe last thing you need for the kit.
Anyways, noone on this forum has the shafted setup, your best off doing a a/c location setup or go to probe talk and scrounge for info there about the shafted setup. You won't find much here

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
you can take a look at this guy's worklog, IIRC he made it himself, he's also done amazing work in general

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
Thanks for the info, but I still want my AC for the summer. So locating their is not good for me a lot of the probe guys mount it over the starter and use the drive shaft across the front of the engine to the serpentine belt. I already have the vortech V5 used and the drive shaft. The brackets look intricate to build for S/C I thought someone might know anyone that has something kicking around. I also have to look at engine management fuel delivery and bypass valve ect...

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
Supercharging with the shaft setup is tricky and unreliable. You won't find anyone having anything laying around since there's only a few that have actually done it that way.

why do you say the shaft setup is tricky and unreliable?

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
Too much heat with a turbo, I've always like superchargers better.

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
Also running as a street car not a race car, turbos over long periods of time will do more damage on none build engine.

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
People have done it and the shaft itself and the bearings tends to wear out prematurely and break from both the stress and the speeds.
You're starting with a V6. It has alot of low end power. Turbo's are no different towards the life of a motor compared to a supercharger. Forced-inductions is forced-induction.

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
There apparently was a kit done on ProbeTalk, the shaft itself was $900. If you want to spend the money, you need to find or make something that's pretty much aircraft grade. Balance and alignment needs to be perfect too.

Re: Supercharge my KL-ZE
Yes in way your right but it's the turbo heat that eventually burns out valves and not good for the head gaskets as well. I guess I will use ceramic bearings:
