I know this thread is pretty old but wondering if these plates are still available for both blown and unblown setups? I would be interested in one of each.

Hi Jim,
This is an old one! We had sold all the other kits, well I have one I've hung on to for myself. I could reach out the the machinist and see if he would like to make another run of these, but would probably need a few other interested parties for it to make sense.

I have the Front Plate and a BOP set-up someplace.
Probably covered up by Holley & Rochester carburetors, LOL! Tom V.

I will look tomorrow. The engine plate is easy. The rest of the belt drive stuff will take some looking.

Not so good news. He wanted a fuel pump drive system for a Pontiac and I had a
Belt Driven Camshaft Drive system from BOP Engineering. Tom V.

The machinist I used was hit pretty hard by covid, I spoke to him today and it sounds like he may have some remaining pieces. If there were to be more interest, it's likely we could produce more.

I bought this kit years ago as I added a 10-71 Roots blower to my engine and it works great. I highly recommend it. When I documented my blower conversion in a thread up here in this section years ago, I thanked KGTO and a few others here who made parts for fellow Pontiackers and sold them at a reasonable price. Couldn't have done it without them.

I would be interested in an unblown setup as I’m running turbos. Please let me know if you make another run of them. Thx!

Quick update as there has been a little more interest. Looks like we have at least one of the turbo plates and a couple of the drive hubs. The machinist I used back then confirmed, but thinks he might have another plate. He was hit pretty hard with covid and doesn't go to the shop much anymore, he also lives 2.5hrs from me. I'll be following up with him again later this week and see, he was going to the shop and look to see what else he has.
