Billet inlet plate for 2.7 IHI Supercharger

[16GoManGoHC2]

Finally have my billet inlet plate for my 2.7 IHI completed. Made from a block of T6061 T6 aircraft grade aluminum. Precision machined to within a few tenths of a thousandth of a stock plate. Can make a batch for sale if I get enough purchase inquires for them. Will be dyno ing what kind of power it makes soon. Top plate in one picture is a ported stock cast plate that I used as my template. Stay tuned!!

No just the 2.7 at the moment. I only made it because I couldn’t buy one that I liked, the SDG I liked but he would not sell one to me for self installation.

Compared to a stock unported 2.7 plate, much more open but MUCH stronger. I could have taken a support or 2 away but I plan on spinning this 2.7 with a +10 ATI lower and a 2.86 Satera clutched quick change upper pulley and my engine sees 7200 rpm between shifts so at the moment I want maximum rigidity of the bearing supports over maximum flow potential.

It's sad that you have to go this far just to keep it on the road. No thanks to whipple's constant issues of course.

The billet plate is one thing my 2.4 doesn't have. It's going on season 3ish (mid 2021) since it went on and might be due for a refresh soon.

I have had a billet plate on my 2.4 for many years. That blower made 960 wheel on pump flex 83 and is still in perfect condition. My goal for this 2.7 is 1050 wheel.
Here’s the billet plate on the 2.4

Very impressive. Great work!

37k RPM peak on that male rotor. That's really spinning.

Glad to see you didn't mess with the rotor timing on your billet plate. Should make power all the way through instead of just top end.

Glad to see you have time to get back to the garage!

I wanted to laugh that hard when Curt and I discussed it during the 15% off sale.

Not until all this shit straightens itself out. If it ever does.

Mike and myself talk a lot when he got his 3.8 whipple I told him to sell that thing before he even ran it.
That’s why I’m going turbos no more problems

Knowing @16GoManGoHC2 this was all machined by hand and caliper on a drill press

Looks beautiful

Hopefully this is what whipple is going to be shipping with the new 3.8’s for hellcat, already doing such with Mustang units.

 

[Unholy707]

Mustangs get all of the attention!!!

Port matched plate to snout and opened snout up to 108mm. Heated plate to 275F for an hour and it dropped right on the bearings and dowels, perfect fit. Checked rotor relation and timing, looks perfect. Coupling is pinned to the rotor shaft, have to do the same to the snout. Filled with 8oz of Jon Bond blue ceramic super charger oil, be time to put it on this weekend hopefully.
