Torqstorm.. let's see how it does

Well I just got my torqstorm, so I figured I would post it's journey.
First off it's going on a 408 in my 73 dart.
This 408 was built for a little spray. Does not have a "turbo" cam and is 11.7:1 compression.
This is not a daily driver. I am also converting everything to e85 to help with any detonation issues that may show up.
I know this blower is small, but it will be a fun experiment and if I feel like I need to upgrade, I have 2 other small block a bodies this thing would feel right at home with.

First off it's well packaged, and it's Purdy.

The bracket is thick and everything lines up just right.
When I was looking into the kit initially I was worried about the crank pulley and how it was setup, mainly because I need the underdrive. That being said, the supplied pulley is a beaut. It is basically a March underdrive pulley designed with the blower drive, matches my old March pulley.

I have the supercharger all bolted up and lined up, pretty dang good. I did have to add a washer to help line up the bracket. But the kit does still work the power steering. Tight fit though.

It didn't take long to get everything bolted. Pretty streamlined. But now I'm stuck waiting for my e85 HP innovations carb to show up.
In the mean time I can start to change some of my fuel system over and remove the nitrous plate and wiring.
I'll keep you guys updated.


Did you tell them what size pulleys you needed? I spoke with their sales guy at Moparty and he was a bit of a jerk. I need provisions for a trigger wheel on my crank pulley (EFI crank sensor) and either he was tired of answering dumb questions all day or he didn’t understand what I was talking about. I’m very interested in buying one of these but damn, that guys attitude is making it hard for me. I’m hoping their engineers are smarter (and more friendly) than their sales guy. At the end of our conversation it seems like they can make anything I want for the crank pulley. (I hope so, they have insane CNC machines) it’s unclear if I’ll have to supply them with a drawing or if they can do it.
