check this out, this is very cool. Now I definitely want to pick up a Vette..
With 8.0 compression (for pump gas), it made 701HP at 6500 and an incredible 672 ft. lbs. of torque at 3000 with a mere 13 psi of boost. Estimates with 20 psi producing an easy 850HP on this motor which utilizes 60lb injectors, AFR heads and cams and FAST throttle body.
There will be no backward mount Kenne Bell supercharger kits for any GM engine, whether it be Corvette, GTO, Street Rod or Off Road. And Kenne Bell re-designed the supercharger to produce even more low and mid range power without sacrificing top end. Unfortunately, this extends the kit delivery date to November 1st. Sorry Guys, but this will put an end to the "Magnuson makes as much low end...blah blah blah".
There is NO boost "drop off" at any boost level from the huge 2.4L Twin Screw, which has up to 30% lower air charge temp and parasitic loss than a Roots type supercharger. A boost/pulley upgrade from 6-20 psi in 2 psi increments takes only 3 minutes. The big HP potential can be further enhanced by upgrading to a 90mm FAST LS2 throttle body as the hi-flo manifold is designed to accept a stock or aftermarket throttle body. No other upgrades are necessary.
The fuel system includes billet fuel rails, Kenne Bell BOOST-A-PUMP™ (dropping the tank to install a larger pump is not necessary) and 42lb injectors. This gets you to 600RWHP.
All other necessary components including the Kenne Bell Corvette style hood, re-calibrated ECM and 800HP Cool Air Kit are included in the kit which will be available in polished or black satin.
KB's goal was always to engineer a kit with the most HP and torque while providing the ultimate in upgrade potential and flexibility for both street and race applications.

I wonder how many inches the Stenod crew gained when using a motor plate to drop the engine? Thats what they did to get that 105mm carbed intake to fit right, but I don't really know how tall those are. Maybe they can chime in and comment on that.
OH yeah, does anyone know if they scream like the mustang version?
Looks very PIMP

Actually, pricing is not wayyy out of the park as you would expect. I've heard estimates on the general C5 forum on corvetteforum on pricing in the 6k range. Not really that bad when you consider it comes with the fuel rails and injectors, etc. It will definately go on my wish list for the Vette 
It'll either be that or twin turbos ...This is all ofcourse once I win the lottery
