Pfft.....superchargers, at least where you're from people know what that is, at scrapin the coast last year I had several dumb *** people think my alternator was an S/C, is like jesus christ, how stupid can you be, at least at 1 fest, the one and only show I attended this year, was all old tymers with classics and they actually knew what I had just by looking at it and hearing it lol.[8D]
BAH!!! I've had people thin my s/c was an alternator....

Had 4 or 5 auto zones try and sell me a belt because my belt was "loose"
Had a few people insist my ps pump was gonna go
its just fun

Hey, VCS, go buy some red hose connectors for your S/C from www.hosetechniques.com that will really clean things up a bit.

I'm considering caning all the blue under my hood and going all red myself. Don't know why for the life of me I choose blue 2 years ago, but now I'm starting now to like it. I'm thinking about going back with all black stock radiator hoses, and getting just a basic red hose cover kit like what you have and call it a day, well along with making the pipe connectors for the S/C red. As soon as I sell my current one, I'm going to get a pre-polished kit, so then I'll just get all the hoses new and do the S/C and all the hoses at once.
