2016 V6 Edelbrock - where to get one?

Hi, everyone

For the past week we've been trying to buy Edelbrock kit for LGX remotely (I'm from Kyiv, Ukraine) and it's either "payment declined" after a day or two in case of Edelbrock or "it's no longer manufactured" when we've tried to order from Phastek (yet it's still in stock according to their site). Does anyone know a surefire way to purchase this kit in US? We have a company that does shipping by sea and all we need is to pay for it with a card and US domestic shipping to deliver it to this company's office

Thank you

I don't have a answer to your question.I just wanted to say I remember you posting about a year ago. I remember your pics showed Bilstein dampers .Since then I have installed b6's on mine and like them.

Based on my experience, shipping to an address that is different than Credit Card address will always get flagged by US billing systems & the transaction could get auto declined

You will need to have shipping address similar to Card address. Another option is to open an account with a US freight forwarder and have your kit shipped there (this method requires paying the vendor via PayPal)

Great to hear that you like em) I like them a lot, but I decided to go with the AirLift suspension and currently waiting for a kit to arrive. Once it's here I'll post a complete installation report with pictures and video

We've tried different payment options but ultimately gave up and I'm looking for a way to maybe get a used one

Have you contacted Phastek directly via email to see if they can help you buy it?

Superchargers in general seem to be in short supply at present, including LT1/LT4 versions. I personally have never seen a blower on a gen6 V6 and was not aware that Edelbrock offered a kit. I do not believe that V6 Superchargers are big sellers here in the states, and I honestly doubt if you would have much better luck sourcing one here in the US. I could be wrong though. You may want to try Superchargersonline. They may have a refurbished unit.

Yep, they've been quiet the whole time, like Edelbrock and a couple of their resellers. At one point I thought that maybe my mail is not working properly, but no - it's just me getting shunned)

Thanks for the tip, I might check them out in the future. I've bought a used one on Ebay and I'm currently praying to all the gods that this thing will come to Kyiv at least in the working condition
