Vortech Superchargers Complete System - V-1 H/D Ti - Polished (Carbureted Small Block Chevrolet) 4GP218-038T
Polished Heavy-Duty V-1 Ti Supercharger System for Carbureted SBC
The Vortech Superchargers Complete Supercharging System (PN 4GP218-038T) is a heavy-duty, universal supercharger solution engineered for carbureted Small Block Chevrolet engines that demand higher power capability and long-term durability. This system features the V-1 H/D Ti centrifugal supercharger in a show-quality polished finish, making it ideal for aggressive street, strip, and competition-focused builds.
Developed through extensive testing in Vortech's supercharger lab, this system leverages Vortech's advanced centrifugal compressor technology to achieve up to 78% peak adiabatic efficiency (SAE J1723). Higher efficiency translates directly into cooler discharge temperatures, reduced parasitic loss, and more usable horsepower - while maintaining excellent mechanical reliability under sustained boost.
V-1 H/D Ti Supercharger Technology
The V-1 H/D Ti is built with a heavy-duty straight-cut gear set specifically designed for higher horsepower applications. Compared to Si-Trim units, the Ti-Trim provides increased load capacity and durability, supporting applications up to approximately 950 horsepower when paired with proper engine and fuel system upgrades.
Performance Potential
- Horsepower Gains: Approximately 30% to more than 75% (application dependent)
- Typical Boost: ~8-10 PSI at 5,500 RPM on a mildly modified 350ci engine
- Maximum Power Capacity: Up to ~950 HP with supporting modifications
Carbureted System Design
This system is designed around a sealed cast aluminum carburetor enclosure that properly pressurizes float bowls and throttle shafts for consistent fuel control under boost. The enclosure is compatible with:
- Holley 4150
- Quick Fuel Q-750-BAN
- Demon 750 MD
The enclosure includes front and rear -8 AN fuel inlet ports, multiple pressure/vacuum reference ports, linkage arms, a splined shaft, left- and right-hand spherical rod ends, and carburetor studs for clean, adjustable throttle integration.
