Default magnacharger.......

Would anyone with a magnacharger system like to take some measurements for me please? I am looking for the bottom of lower intake to top of lower intake, and the bottom of blower to top. along with the measurement from front of intake to rear most part of blower. lastly the measurment from the manifold to top of blower in rear. Thank you very much in advance.

Ok as best I can tell with a measuring tape the bottom of lower intake to the bottom of the blower is 3.25",the blower height is 5" and the measurement from the back of the supercharger intake tube[trucks have a rear facing blower inlet and long intake tube to a foward facing throttlebody]to the front of the lower intake manifold is 21",this measurement could be reduced by about 1.5" by pluging and relocating the rear vacuum port.The hose connections for the heat exchanger are under the intake tube to the rear of the blower and should'nt be a clearance problem.I think the system would intrude far enough into the cowling that you might have to redisign the wiper mechanisim.But I also think the direct drive pulley at the front will offer a real advantage,when you go to a smaller pulley to increase boost.

They should all be the same except for the height. The truck Radix blower has the intercooler which would add an inch or so (just guessing) to the overall hieght.
