I am in the market for one of the Accessory drive sytems for my LSX build.

Who has the specs and pictures on the Vintage Air Front Runner LSX system? Prices? Any pics other than the one from SEMA? Will it be offered in black anodized? Why doesn't VA update their friggin site already? Why do women always want to discuss everything at 22:00 when you are trying to go to sleep? Anyone?

As there is little info on the VA set up I am leaning towards Synister.
Any dealers have any specials on the Synister system right now?

Thanks,
Jim

Have you seen this thread? There are pictures of a few different systems.

Frank @ Prodigy will have pictures of the anodized black VA setup at the end of the month which is what I'm leaning towards at the moment. I really dig the ATS kit but its about $1300? more than the VA. Are the accessories on the Synister kit polished on their black kit? I can't tell from the pics...

Hmm. Looks like both the Swartz unit, and the DSE Driver One units are made by Wegner Automotive (http://www.wegnerautomotive2.com/photogallery.htm).

Nice... I didn't realize that the VA set-up was packaged quite that nicely.... eliminates the compressor issue with the subframe... what's the price on that set-up? Is there a package deal with thier direct fit system for a 69 Camaro?

The synister system also fits the stock subframe, as well as DSE and ATS. It's great to have such a great selection of quality systems.

Here are pics of the new March Set Up, and the Sidewinder for those that may not have seen them all. Both the Vintage Air and the March come in black and polish, and sell through us for $2350. The Sidewinder comes in black only and is no doubt the absolute cats meow in the LSX accessory drives for race style and function. I know the Sidewinder has been tested for long durations at high RPM, but at $3600 you will pay for it to. The DSE falls in the same category as the ATS, and if it has Wegner involved in it probably has the same race pedigree as the ATS, but again is higher end at $3500 or so also.

So many choices, I am so confused. I am just happy I sell them all!

I do like all these billet systems . looks good , but why in the gods sake they all use historic alternators???? Not a single systems so far i have seen uses the latest . most modern alternators.

Im a fan of the DSE unit cuz it changes to a normal water pump and they work awsome. We recently modified one to use on a magna charged ls-1.
