Does anyone know where I can purchase a blower kit for my 403?
|
This is what I'm gonna put on mine. It's the only company I have found to date. http://dyersblowers.com/ Cam |
Thanks, I will check them out.

I just bought a 1985 442 #'s matching car. Am now in the process of getting it painted.(original silver gray metallic) and bought a stripe kit from pheonix graphix.com. Any other "G" body 442's out there?

I am currently working on restoring a 1977 Pontiac Firebird which came with a 403 oldsmobile motor which I blew up. I had a 455 oldsmobile motor built for it and it is much stronger than I thought possible. I owned a 2004 Cadillac CTSV which was rated at 460hp after i modifications and my Firebird is much more powerful. Once I put the blower on i plan on putting it on the dyno. |
I got a 1987 442. It's dark blue with the gray bottom; t-tops of course. The engine will take a lil reading; 403 Olds motor w/: Edelbrock - Aluminum heads & intake, 750 carb, cam & lifters; Hooker - Super Comp headers; 3" pipe from headers to mufflers, 2.25" h-pipe between 3" pipe, 2.5" pipe out back of mufflers; Flowmaster - 40 series mufflers. I'm sure there is other crap I can't remember, but you get the idea. Cam |
Hey Cam, What part of the country are you in? Will you be racing your 442? |
I'm in South Carolina. It's a street/strip car. I'm gonna take it to the track some on the weekends. Just trying to see what else I need to do to it. I just finished college, so should have more time and money now. Problem is, there are too many projects. Oh well. later Cam |
I was going to race my Firebird, instead i will probably turn it into a show car. I took out the backseats and put in a Memphis sound system with two 12 inch subwoofers. I will probably take it to the drag strip once I paint it and see what kind of times I can produce in the 1/4 mile.

Sounds nice oracle. I'll probably throw a couple Resonant Engineering RE 8's in the trunk that I got laying around the house. Not gonna abandon the back seat just yet. May need it on occasions! I don't have any track slips yet. I just got the motor all finished up a few months ago. I'm gonna try to go run it at a little local 8th mile track here to see what it can do. I still need to rebuild the trans, put in the new torque converter, add a posi and maybe change the gearing (or maybe just swap out the entire rearend), get some weld wheels and some street legal drag tires. The blower is down the road a ways still. Maybe end of this year; or bynext summer. But the blower will make all the other mods on my list a necessity! So, they will have to be done first.
