Never heard about KBs on our cars.

Do they sell them for LS1s?

The short answer is no...and there are only a handful of KB Corvettes.
Search the forced induction forum. There are quite a few threads
on the subject.

aaaaaaaahahahahahahahahaha
Well if a Cam and fast 90/90 +full bolton Z06 can keep up with a max effort kb cobra. Then a 3.3L Z06 with 30psi would be so fast that the cobra would need a telescope to view the vette.

What kind of nonsense is that quote in your post? No one even
said that in this thread.

...and a "max effort" 2.2L KB Cobra is good for bottom 9's.
For example:

Regardless, this KB 'vette is wicked.

I saw the thread on that thing and know it made some crazy *** power. I think the KB can be put on an fbody but a couple things have to be done to make room for it. I know that vette has a big cowl induction hood so it would fit. If it goes on a vette and you have the resources, it will fit (other than exhaust or drive train).

Sorry Unit, not bashing ya but it was talked about on that thread too about it going on an fbody, but you'd need atleast a 4" cowl so it might fit under the hood.

Anyone have any final #'s on the vette???

Maggies will fit Fbods, but the KB's are a bit taller than maggies. It would take some significant cutting to get a KB to fit one of our cars. It hasn't been done yet but if they find a way, I'll go into some serious debt to get one on my bird lol.

If I recall that vette is in the 800 or so rwhp range and some serious torque as well.

I think it made high 700's on like 16psi, and i think they touched 800's with some meth. I believe this is the vette that Synergy Motorsports put together awhile back.
