I haven't posted for a while as I was extremly busy at work for last few months and I was enjoying my new Boat almost every weekend.
My Mark VIII was sitting in the garage for months collecting dust and I had no time to drive it or work on it other then removing my Vortech Supercharger and selling it. I have no Idea what is going on with my Mark VIII ,since I removed my Vortech Supercharger the car whines even louder then before with the Vortech but I don't know what is the problem with it maybe worn out tensioner pulley or something?

here is the picture of my Boat and my R500 Benz.

Cripes Mike that car was wicked fast, you should have found it a nice home ------like mine!!.
 
It's all good she sits in the garage under Cover and is nice and Clean. Soon I am taking her to Body shop where I work for Complete Paint Job as the car has normal rock chips,small door dings for 13 years old car and over 94k miles but she is 100% rust free. I think she deserves Paint Job and Very good Detail Inside after all those years of racing( about 250-300 1/4 mile passes) and I always drove her to the track and back home without any issues.
As for the whining noise she is still Blown but not by Vortech anymore.
I am not trying to make this car Much faster but I want to make it more like my brothers Mustang(Show and Go).I will also be adding another muffler to my Exhaust as the car is too loud for my taste and it doesn't sound like a slipper anymore.

It's nothing special Mike.Same size Blower as you have but with Procharger sticker on it. It's a Paxton novi 1500 which is the same blower as T Trim and Bolts on to my Vortech Bracket.My old Blower was Satin S trim and was getting tired after 5 years of racing and I wanted something Polished to Match my Polished intake Manifold and discharge tubes.The Novi 1500 has HD Bearings so I will be able to spin this Blower much harder and not to worry about exploding like s trims do with higher RPM's. According to Blower RPM calculator From Vortech website I was spinning the little S trim over 54k Rpm's and the Max RPM for S trim is 50k RPM . So I was overspinning the S trim and I was only making 12psi of Boost.
