I must say i am a huge chevy guy but if i did not have a camaro i think my next choice on a car would be a mystic blue cobra there awsome. I love the blower wine sounds great going down the road.

I'd hit it! I would take an 03/04 Cobra any day of the week. That one just sounds awsome!

Definitely not a sleeper there! That's almost obnoxious hearing that noise. It's like something was done on purpose to make the whine louder.

Sounds pretty damn good for a mod. motor.

I'm not an expert by any means, but I'm gonna guess it's a Kenne Bell, possibly with a cogged belt.

whats a cogged belt?

One that looks like this instead of being smoth and relying on only tension to spin the pulley:

Very much so! hell, even how much tension there is on the cogged belt makes a difference.

I was gonna ask about the cogged belt...do they make LOUD super chargers for LS1's...and do they have cogged belts available?!?

Prob a loud cogged KB along with like a Pete Jackson GearDrive.
We had one of thoes geardrives (gets rid of the timing chain replaces it with gears) and that thing had a whine to it.

I don't think they make a gear drive for OHC motors....

I would have to admit the whine would get old to me if it was a daily driver, however I think if it was my weekend car, I would love it.

EDIT: but then again I would drive it mostly 1st and 2nd at WOT cause I love the sound of the blower...
