CHEVY LS WHIPPLE SUPERCHARGER
ALL INCLUSIVE WRAPTOR & REAPER SERPENTINE SYSTEMS
Whipple power deserves a coordinated front drive. Complete your supercharged LS build with a CVF Racing Wraptor or Reaper serpentine system designed around a compatible Whipple blower. Explore 8-rib Wraptor systems and Reaper dual-belt systems with a dedicated 10-rib supercharger drive and separate 8-rib accessory drive.
Choose from Polished, C3 Ceramic Clear Coat, Stealth Black and Black Diamond finishes, then configure your alternator, power steering and A/C. Match the kit to your exact Whipple model, generation and inlet arrangement before ordering.
Start with the blower model: The WK-1810 2.9L front-feed, Gen IV 3.0L inverted and Gen VI 3.0L top-mount applications use specific drive systems. Displacement alone does not identify the correct kit.
Match Your Whipple to the Right Drive
Whipple WK-1810 2.9L Front-Feed
CVF offers Wraptor and Reaper applications for the specified WK-1810 blower. The Wraptor uses an 8-rib drive and requires a 90° thermostat housing. The Reaper uses a dedicated 10-rib blower belt alongside a separate 8-rib accessory belt and requires electric cooling fans.
Whipple Gen IV 3.0L Inverted
The inverted application requires the specified Whipple Gen IV 3.0L supercharger. Its Reaper system features separate blower and accessory belt drives and requires electric fans. Select the inverted-specific kit for this combination.
Whipple Gen VI 3.0L Top-Mount
The Gen VI top-mount Reaper application is listed for the Whipple WK-1815 3.0L supercharger. It uses a 10-rib supercharger drive and an 8-rib accessory drive, with electric fans required.
Configure the Accessories Around Your Build
Available configurations include alternator only, power steering and alternator, A/C and alternator, or all three accessories. Review your selected system's included components, alternator upgrades, power steering options and balancer requirements before completing your order.
Whipple LS Serpentine System FAQs
How do I identify the correct Whipple application?
Use the supercharger's model number and generation, along with its inlet and mounting arrangement. Match those details to the individual kit description. If the blower has been modified or its identification is unclear, contact CVF Racing with photos before ordering.
What is the difference between the Whipple Wraptor and Reaper drives?
The listed WK-1810 Wraptor uses an 8-rib drive. The Whipple Reaper systems separate the blower and accessories, using a dedicated 10-rib supercharger belt and an 8-rib accessory belt. Choose a system designed for your exact blower.
Does the kit include the Whipple supercharger?
No. The Whipple supercharger is purchased separately. These are front drive systems with the components and engine accessories listed for your selected configuration.
Can I reuse my existing harmonic balancer?
Balancer compatibility depends on the system. The Wraptor lists adapters for specified OEM balancers, while Reaper kits have their own aftermarket balancer requirements. Check the exact product options before planning to reuse your damper.
Are cooling requirements the same across these kits?
No. The WK-1810 Wraptor specifies a 90° thermostat housing, while the listed Whipple Reaper applications require electric fans. Review the selected kit's application notes when planning radiator, fan and hose clearance.
Can I choose a different blower pulley?
Pulley options vary by drive system. The Wraptor lists an optional tuner pulley kit, and Reaper applications offer GripTec® pulley upgrades. Contact CVF Racing to confirm the appropriate pulley combination for your system.
