    Kenne Bell 6 Psi Super Chargers Need Advice

    Mike, you do. KB supplies the necessary stuff to do that. It's very simple but I didn't use it, got rid of my AC stuff.

    Kenne Bell 6 Psi Super Chargers Need Advice

    I'm not saying one is better than the other, just answering some questions the OP had about the KB blower. I figured since KB is the route he wants to go I'd offer him some of my experience with KB. I have driven a few Fox's with Vortechs, they are awesome, especially on the top end. My car...

    Kenne Bell 6 Psi Super Chargers Need Advice

    Bullitt I couldn't have said it better myself. I agree, it all depends on what you want your car to do as to which power adder to get. I like having the off idle boost. I think centrifugal blowers/turbos are great for the track at higher rpm's. Boost is boost, no matter where you get it, the two...

    Kenne Bell 6 Psi Super Chargers Need Advice

    I don't have any heat issues even after repeated runs at the track in the summer. Having the bypass valve helps a lot when boost is not needed.

    Kenne Bell 6 Psi Super Chargers Need Advice

    I forgot to add that, I did install a 3 row aluminum radiator, high flow water pump and new 180 tstat. KB has no inter cooler so you need to do everything possible to reduce heat. This winter I replaced the stock Aod with a TCI Street Fighter Aod as I knew the stock one was now on borrowed time.

    Kenne Bell 6 Psi Super Chargers Need Advice

    I have the KB kit with the bypass valve at 8 psi. It is a good kit. You may want to call and talk to KB tech, there may be an issue with your car having the speed density system. Along with the KB kit, I put in 42# injectors, 77mm MAF calibrated, adjustable fuel psi regulator, 255 lph fuel pump...

    Stock Intake

    Seems like after reading that post, only the GT 40x heads have that issue with the tall ports. Looks like the GT 40P and other aftermarket heads will work fine. Looks like the guy in that post was trying to use a Cobra lower and GT 40x heads. The Cobra lower and stock Mustang lower must have...

    Stock Intake

    89oem, yea that's what I saw on the Ford Racing site, the GT40x ports being too high. I am going to look at other heads that will work with the stock Mustang lower, just not sure which ones will work. Thanks for the link, a lot of good info there.

    Line Lock Fittings...

    I installed the Hurst line lock this past summer. I did use the Hurst tubing kit and Fox specific adapters. It wasn't bad and sure made the install go a lot faster.

    Stock Intake

    Tony, the stock Mustang lower. I have to keep it if I want to keep the Kenne Bell blower (which I do). The KB blower will only work with the stock lower intake. Not too concerned because I will have it ported. I was worried about the heads. The Ford Racing 306 CI long block I was first looking...

    Stock Intake

    I'm planning on pulling my motor this year and installing a 331. I'm keeping the stock lower intake (will have it ported) because of the Kenne Bell blower. Will any of the aftermarket heads work with the stock lower? I read that the Ford Racing GT40X will not. Not sure if any others will. Thanks.

    Passenger Side Header Leak.. Worth It? Or Let A Shop Do It.

    Header gasket replacement isn't a huge deal. Definitely replace both sides. I have always had the best luck with copper gaskets. You should only have to remove the inlet tubing/MAF, spark plug wires and some misc hoses/tubing (disconnecting the rear of the H pipe helps, gives a little more room...

    Engine Difference Between Maf For Stock Airbox Vs Fenderwell Cai

    I am running a Pro M 75mm MAF calibrated for 42# injectors and CAI. The CAI is a BBK. The setup runs awesome with the blower. After talking to Pro M, they said the CAI tuned MAF is calibrated for the 90* elbow in the CAI, the elbow creates turbulence in the airflow, which can upset a non CAI...

    Need Help!

    I am running a BBK 70mm TB and Pro-M 76mm MAF, calibrated for 42# injectors and cold air. Runs awesome. You may want to check your FPR for the flooding issues, hook a fuel pressure gauge up to the Schrader valve and check fuel pressure. Good place to start.

    Electrical Is 2 Gauge Too Big?

    Larger wire is good, you're running yours a little longer than stock. Larger wire=less resistance, less voltage drop. You may want to use the same gauge wire from the battery to the solenoid too.

    Drivetrain Trans Opinions

    Now that the supercharger and other little things are installed and running good, it's time to address the trans. It's a stock AOD with a B&M shifter. I'm going to put a new/built AOD in. Looking for opinions on the Lentech Street Terminator/Lentech TC or the TCI Street Fighter/TC combo. Anyone...

    Whichignition Box?

    Deja Vu all over again. I had a similar issue over the winter when I installed my KB blower. None of us bothered to check that the factory taped off the blower discharge. Took a week to figure it out. Same symptoms, wet plugs and no start. Got the tape off the blower and reinstalled it. Held the...

    1989 Mustang Gt Will Not Stay Running At Cold Start Up. Please Help!

    Sounds like IAC. When you cleaned it did you check to make sure the piston moves free in its housing?
