Default Does Kenne Bell make a Vette LS1 blower?
I didn't see anything about it on his site but a friend insists he makes one. Any info on it if it exists will be appreciated.

I don't think my buddy's ready to swap hoods yet. I'm sure I can talk him into a Procharger.

Check out the holden section there is a company that puts the Whipples on the LS1's.
They are the superchargers that Kenny bell uses. They do offer lower air temp because of the scew design. I think it was like forcedinduction.com or something like that I can not remember off the top of my head

I seen a guy on this site with one on a C5 with a 402 build up. He made like 850rwhp and had the sickest torque curve ever. I think it was over 800 ft/lbs from 2500-6000 RPM's. Go check out Kennebell.com I'm pretty sure they'll have all the info you'll need.
