Re: Firebug's V6 Gemini
I edited my post with one more measurement.
Thanks in advance.

I can answer that....vlad01 wrote:can someone get me a measurement from the crank center to the SC shaft center?
Just need a reference measurement for a potential alternative to the eaton to check bonnet clearance.
Also if possible, the intake manifold height from the valley to the SC mounting face.
375mm Crank center to SC center.
76mm Manifold, SC mounting face to bottom of valley/manifold
Hope that's of use. Cheers.

firebugs just fits under the bonnet of the gemini!
No matter what the question is, the answer is always more horsepower!

Re: Firebug's V6 Gemini
Well if you're taking requests can you please measure from the front gearbox crossmember/body bolt to the front of the trans, I'm curious to know if our engines are in the same position
Cheers

Re: Firebug's V6 Gemini
cheers for that.
just working out if a whipple kit would fit in a vp as they have an intercooler plate.
There is only 30-40mm clearance with a stock engine so odds are very slim for this particular kit.

Re: Firebug's V6 Gemini
I have spare cut off wheels for the grinder, it will fit ! Seriously how about a group a scoop ? Barely noticeable and factory so all good ?
Re: Firebug's V6 Gemini
superchargers are meant too hang through the bonnet I say put a bugcatcher on top

Re: Firebug's V6 Gemini
nope, stock is how it will look.
All good it will fit provided I have a custom adapter plate made and not use the IC plate as they are about 50-60mm thick
IC is not necessary at relatively mild boost on E85 with efficient whipple and also alloy heads. Their outlet temps are a lot lower than the crappy eaton.
The kit is made to be used on petrol so another reason to do without the IC.

Re: Firebug's V6 Gemini
I have a SC pulley removal tool. Only used once. Bought on ebay over a year back.
Would lend it for the price of postage.. and maybe a sixpack...lol
