    Fastest 5.0 (pushrod) Kenne Bell Mustang?

    We been busy! Vernon is building his car. So far we have the cage in and certed and the rear suspension welded up. I am doing some additional wt reduction and better rear wheels, plus had the AOD and converter upgraded. We have some testing to do when the weather permits... we never really got...

    I do think the blower makes more noise..probably because I am spinning it at max and it IS bigger. I had already put the thicker top cap on (with reinforcing bars inside) before the 2.8 was installed. That said my car is really loud...start it up in the garage and the dishes rattle in the...

    Even then, KB's at full song make an unearthly howl...something akin to a pissed off rabid werewolf from hell making a blood curdling scream. I have people come up to me at the track all the time to ask me what the heck is in my car because it sure don't sound like a turbo!

    Start it up and have someone zing the throttle while you put your hand on whatever might be the culprit and push. If the tone/howl changes then you have found the culprit. You can always have some small roundbar aluminum welded to the outside of the panels to stop the vibration. I have...

    I would bet that any flat sheet metal on the outlet side simply needs to be thicker...went down that road and hit the barrier at the end!

    So we won our class against the black nova this last weekend. Here are some video. We are encountering issues with the blower pulley. Ours are aluminum and at the blower speeds we are turning it is time to get some steel ones made!

    Ok so I finally got my video's to post on youtube. SO I am adding another run with a lot better view of the car launching and reposting the above pass from youtube. The car was really running good despite a very marginal track. Spun the tires a lot on the 9.37 pass!

    Make sure your inlet tube down stream from throttlebody is at least 6 inch diameter and that thing should be an animal

    Fastest 5.0 (pushrod) Kenne Bell Mustang?

    The vent on the case is the return from the overflow cannister for the blower snout. At high rpm's for extended pulls, such as a quarter mile, the sc can push a significant amount of oil out the snout vent. The cannister collects it and gravity drains it back into the case. My sc had o rings...

You may have to get a plug from KB for the...

    No problems with it upside down. you will have to take the case off and drill and tap the case for the dip stick....unlike the 2.1 case, the new ones(2.8) don't have a dipstick access on the bottom side.

    DIY air to air intercooler on Kenne Bell for 92 LX

    if you can make the mating surface to the lower intake removable, then different plates could be designed to match the different lower manifolds out there.

    DIY air to air intercooler on Kenne Bell for 92 LX

    Food for thought....making the inlet/outlet taller would significantly increase flow. If you made the mount plate system modular you make it work with just about any lower intake. And last but not least a remote mount air to water IC would work really well with this design...strong work shawn
