LME 408ci with Kenne Belle My friend is restoring his 1968 Camaro.Car currently has a GM performance parts 502,well the motor is sold,so plans are either a 427 with LS7 top end or a 408ci with a Kenne Belle supercharger.What would be your pick and why.Car is a protouring car with AC and big 335/30s in the back 4.10s with T56.He just wants a strong daily driver and eat his cake too.

Agreed the 408 and KB will have way more power and be just as reliable for a daily driver. Don't they make a larger KB than 3.3?

Not sure, I know that the 3.3 was the test mule for that 402...
They had a 2.6 and 2.8 I believe for the cobras, not sure whats available for vettes and other LS1 applications (assuming it fits under the hood)

I thought the 3.3 was a whipple, and the 2.8 was the KB on the vette that made all that sick power.... I also want to say I saw something on whipple's site a little while ago about a 5 liter blower? W305AX is what it says on the site, and it says it's 5 liters, but I'm still not sure if I'm hallucinating. if that's real I wanna see it on something

whipple had the 3.3ltr blower and ran it on a LS1 that went into the back of a sand rail. the KB that went into American HP's car was the prototype 2.8ltr unit that i think they willbe/are selling now.
i would def go for the KB and either a 402 or the 408. will be a monster if he plans on building it like AmericanHP did! he even used the stock LS6 cam (i think)!
thanks Chris.
