Here are a few pictures of the beginning of the install. This is going on a stock LS6 until the new Forged LS6 is built next month and then installed in April or May.




Looks like something was living under there.....

I need to hear some real world results about this Blower before I make the big purchase! By real world results, I mean street driving and etc, more than just dyno numbers.

Well here is a mock up....












THIS THING IS ******* HUGE..........................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is not for an F-body. It is the 2.8L Big Bore and honestly a 2.2L or maybe even a 2.6L but not this one. Look......







I have to relocate the power steering pump and clearance the only nice valve covers that will fit. I have three sets and these old C5R covers fit with a little massaging.

No I do not Ed. I was actually thinking about that tonight. I don't want to compound the install with the addition of the the cam as well but it is tempting.

I can tell you first hand they have incredible torque at the hit of the throttle.
Tuned one that had 600 ft lbs at 2200 rpms. It was nothing short of brutal. And when you get the drag radials hot, it'll roll the eyes back in your head!!LOL

You ought to baby it on down here, and we'll get it dialed in. Then we can retune after the forged motor goes in. You wont have to pay for 2 tunes.
Be best to make sure its safe for a while.

I have a trailer so I can get it down there regardless. Might not be too fun putting it on the trailer though.

Check out the before and after numbers. This was previously tuned by a "leading tuner" (1 bar MAF)LOL. My 2 bar SD tune is richer down low, and still made a **** load more power.
How bout that torque curve?!

Looking good!

I'm loving my Kenne Bell 2.8L H series. I'm finally able to start using the higher boost capability of the blower since I had some custom pulleys made for the trucks. I think we're going to start seeing a lot more Power in the Kenne Bell platforms now

Here's a pic of the new custom pulley on my H2. If anyone needs custom pulleys I can direct you to a great shop that will make them better than Kenne Bell does
