i thought i was set to get the novi200 and p-51, but now some people have me considering the 1.7 big tube kb kit.

anyway i have plenty of time to think it over, just trying to be prepaired.

so how hard is it to change the kb blowers oil? also do they have a intercooler now? i thought i saw that on their site. except people here always say they dont have one

You just suction the oil out with a suction pump/hose I back my car up and put the rear wheels on car ramps, takes about 10 minutes to change oil. You can get your kit(99-04) with or without the intercooler. I have a 6 PSI non intercooled. If you go with the 9 PSI you will have to get an intercooler, you can run up to 8 using 94 octane non intercooled.

4.6L/5.4L kit can be intercooled, 5.0L/5.8L kits are not.

Changing the blower oil is easy. Like someone already said, just get a simple suction pump to get it out and then fill it back up. You should be done with it in ten minutes.

The 'filler hole' is on top of the blower. You need to pump it out of there with a small pump, which you can rent from your local parts store. The oil comes out the same way it goes in.
