Anyone run this combination at all? Just curious on some feedback. I have a trickflow r series upper and lower manifold on my engine and I might be picking up a 2.1L flowzilla kit. Just wondering if it would be worth anything to have a machine shop fab up an adapter plate to match the kenne bell to the trick flow intake.

Honestly, there are better superchargers out there for the 5.0... The KB really shines on the modulars but not so much on the 5.0. If you are getting a killer deal on it, ya go for it though...

I'ld bypass on that blower kit too regardless of the deal the cost of fabricating may not be worth it.

I agree with the above posts. Kenne bell has the cool factor but they don't make more power than a good centri

I think you might get a different opinion from kenne bell owners. I personally don't like them as much as a centri because they are harder to hook on the street with.

Wasnt asking much for an opinion on the blower. I don't mind if i'll make more power with a centrifugal supercharger. I know this. I know i cant intercool the supercharger either unless im adding some form of chemical. All I was asking was is it worth it to use a better flowing intake and the trouble of getting a plate fab'd up. or to just grab a gt40 lower and go that route.

In my opinion, a ported gt40 lower should flow enough
