I think I am going to get the polished version though. Black looks good with the EB. Which model is that? 2.6L or 2.8L?

Neh, a Kenne Belle blown Z06 is probably pretty slow. LOL

That is one of my dream cars right there and with that blower not only is it making great power it's making it right off the line. Great job!

Thanks for the comments everybody.

I ordered the kit directly from KB... I'm not sure that they work with any vendors. The hood is the hood the comes with the kit, it's included in the price. It's the only hood that clears their blower.

It's the 2.6, the 2.8 isn't available as a complete kit. That was part of why we went KB, didn't want to have to piece it together and EVERYTHING including some of the tools you need for install is included.

I considered the polished kit but after looking at some pics I decided against it. If I was going with a smaller blower (in actual physical size) I probably would have went polished but the polished KB just looks too... shiny for me I love the way the black looks like it could be stock.

questions, and I'm sorry for sounding old here, but how is your fuel economy effected? Are you still able to get 30+mpg on the highway? Also, what kind of price did you pay for the hood paintjob?

Thanks!

The only thing is the Tuner and the injectors... I have the injectors and I would want a Dyno tune anyways. Going to push the kit pretty hard on a forged 347.
