BlackSilver... what are you talking about?? Looks like that pulley below the TB spins a shaft that goes under the blower (between the blower and the valley cover) which in turn spins the blower with a little multi-rib belt at the back. There is no way that the cam is being used to turn anything... there isn't a pulley on the cam (or even a way to attach one, since it's behind the water pump).

Is it using a mechanical belt driven pump for the intercooler? That seems like a cool idea. I would think it would pump things a little too quickly though for the given intercooler fluid volume. unless they are using a four gallon setup

Its a crazy design. The C5 magna puts the drive pulley off the the side and brings it forward to catch up with the accessory belt. This unit puts the drive pulley below the compressor sandwiched between the intake. The shaft runs through the setup and terminates in that pulley under the throttle body. I'm not sure how it takes care of intercooling.

oops..... aparantly i didnt look hard enough. sorry guys. it looked like some of those i've seen in the past that you have to modify the cam or crank and attach a pulley. needless to say they suck


but this looks pretty cool

I like that a real lot. Kind of looks like it's sitting on a "single plane" intake, with the shaft tucked underneath it. Still seems to be good room for an IC...

That video... I think the setup sounds similar to a Radix, but not quite.

Anyone see the big video of the Silverado SS on the SSS site? It's got a radix and volant - I think it's a truck out of some magazine. The engine is revved like this, and the blower seems to "chirp" when it's under boost... not a progressive "WhirrRRR... WHIRRRR... WHIRRRR" thing.
