Supercharger question

[copasspupil]

Finishing up some leftover things tonight and received my new couplers. I was told by Stan's headers to have the aluminum pipe rolled to make sure it will stay in place and not blow off from the blower to the bonnet. I'm using 45* silicone couplers and straight pipe instead of what you see below

So do I really need it?

I don't have my tubing rolled and have never had a problem. I am using t bolt clamps though. I am only pumping out 12 lbs of boost so if you plan on running a lot more it may be a problem.

I'm only 6-8#'s and was told by two different people to do it now.

Yes you really need it.

Picking it up tomorrow 20.00 and sounds like it was wisely spent

Now if only fastenal carried the 2 bolts I need for the braces I'd be done. At least the Paxton is done

Looking good. Did you ever dyno the car?

No not yet. The guy has to rebuild the carb's front baffle as it is leaking and I'm dealing with my dad's failing health right now
