jackshaft S/C for SHO??????

[TRicker]

i have seen jackshaft style supercharger setup for the SHO, putting the head unit on the driver's side of the car. there was a kit like this for the contour SVT as well, but it had horrible problems with jackshafts stripping out or breaking off. how does the SHO style hold up? i'd really like to look into getting one for a SHO....... the next one i have is going to get built

I wouldn't go that route...those kits are harder to intercool but they are decent kits. I would build a shoshop style kit but with some "changes".

with the passenger side mount style, do you have to run a counter clockwise rotation supercharger? those are much more expensive......

rofl, add another idler pully into the equasion.

That wouldn't solve the problem. There's already belt slip issues, are you going to try and spin a blower with the back (flat) side of the belt? LOL

Then you'd need to convert every other pulley you have on the 6-rib belt to except it.

ONLY one person makes the setup for a SHO and someone already recommended you contact him in this thread.
