Exclamation **Corvette with custom 3.6L Kenne Bell By Late Model Racecraft**

Just finished baseline tuning on 93 octane and made over 800rwhp at 19lbs of boost. Car made 750rwtq at 3k rpms. We will tune drivability then put some race gas in her to see just how much rwhp this supercharger will make!

did you guys have any issues with heat soak on the blower causing high IAT's and any power loss? I would love to get a twin screw for my Z, but have heard about these issues. Nice build either way.

x2. I saw the "liquid cooled" on the side of the blower... but how cool is it really?

The liquid cooled is referenced to the gears being cooled by water as it will help with the case temps. The intercooler setup is also water cooled as well.

So I take it that is the solution to the high IATs that people had? I live in in makiki and if you don't mind i'd like to talk to you about your setup one day. I am planning on a 383 with PD blower so i figure you might have some good insight seeing as you have that setup.

was that tire spin on the last pull? Sounded like at the beginning of the pull he got into to it and it spun, got out, and then back in it completing the pull.

No problem. I usually hang out on Friday 7:00 at Starbucks up in Pearl City.
