Is it common to have to cut the discharge tube to fit? Mine looks like its just to long. It doesn't seem like it wants to fit in between the t/b and supercharger even without the rubber hose fittings. I'm pretty sure everything is aligned the way its supposed to be, I don't have pics yet, but the alignment looks like the one in this picture, so I think its right :http://neptune.spacebears.com/cars/stories/scsuper.html

Thanks,

I know when I put the vortech on my car I had to cut the discharge pipe so that it would fit also. I just kept taking off a little at a time and rechecking until it fit.

Strange, mine fit up just fine. When I installed mine I placed the bung for the bypass assembly on the passenger side pointed 45 degrees down. I ordered my kit from superchargersonline I believe. Weird I suppose.

Depends on the intake setup and whatnot. Mine fit with the stock intake and TB but with my Edelbrock I had to use a die grinder and shave off a bit. No big deal.

Stock top end fit fine. Bolted ported stock heads and Typhoon intake, I had to trim off a good amount.
