Any new users out there, if so what's the pro's and con's on it.
I heard that it used parts off of the Novi 2000. I think it used the Novi's volute .
where did you hear that 302man? Novi parts wont work on a vortech. they may have designed it around those parts tho but not from the novi.
I do know its worth more power and more boost and yes it definatly moves more air, thats all I can tell ya from a close source that has tested it on the dyno.
From a friend who works for Larocca's.Quote:

Your probably right, parts won't interchange, they probably used the design from it.
