Have you started it yet? This has crossed my mind. I just dont know if I like the idea of the adapter plates. How do you like them? What all parts do you need to have the LSA blower on? How much money do you have into, if you dont mind me asking.

Not many good ways to make that inlet work for an airbox, but other than that it looks like a good swap. Hard to beat for the money.
