W185RF 3.0L SC "Hot Rod" Kit

The Whipple Superchargers LS W185RF (3.0L) SC "Hot Rod" kit represents a significant advancement in twin-screw supercharging technology for GM LS-based engines. Building on over 30 years of experience, Whipple has engineered a powerful, intercooled system designed for applications needing substantial power, from hot rods to sand rails. This kit features the Gen 5, 3.0-liter Whipple twin-screw supercharger, boasting 99% volumetric efficiency and outperforming competitor's roots-type systems. Its massive air-to-water bar-plate intercooler provides unmatched cooling capacity, ensuring consistent power delivery. The "Hot Rod" kit is 100% complete and designed for stock engines but has the capability to support heavily modified applications. Optional race porting is available to potentially add over 100 engine HP at higher RPMs. The unique intercooled bypass system offers better acceleration and minimal consumption during cruising for improved fuel economy. The front-feed design includes a 112mm round inlet and utilizes precision ground helical cut gears for reliability. Integrated features minimize potential leak points and flow restrictions. The system's discharge-down design reduces pressure loss for more power at lower boost levels, and its top-mount configuration contributes to cooler operation. The kit includes billet fuel rails and is compatible with various throttle body sizes (80mm, 90mm, 102mm, and 109mm). An oil level sight glass allows for easy checks. This product is not legal for sale or use in California on public roads and is intended solely for vehicles used in sanctioned competition. It is the responsibility of the installer and user to ensure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. The kit requires specific cylinder head types (Cathedral Port LS1/LS2, LS3/L92, or LS7) and must use the Wegner accessory drive system (Z-Body Spacing).
