Default Kenne Bell 3.6 Liquid Cooled

Wondering if anyone has tried this blower yet. For my setup it would be a drop in probably about 1 hour to swap since the mountings are identical. Was thinking of adding this to santa's list.

I don't know about the chevy's, but on the LX hemi cars, the guys that swapped from the 2.8 to the 3.6LC saw a big drop in IAT's!!

Injectors are maxing for sure, the meth although not reliable keeps it sane, 60 pounders will be a must with the new blower. I have not maxed out the 2.8 yet, I was hoping the 3.6 will run more efficient (less parasitic hp) and cooler with the liquid cooling, I have heard that discharge temps were considerably lower. So I was hoping to hear if someone had some experience with this config before I take the plunge.

I am sure one reason IAT's dropped on the bigger unit, is because it is more then likely more efficient

thats a bad *** blower . cant wait to see what the 4.2 l will do

i wish we had more kennebell support here im a big fan of their product not their customer service.

id like to see an even comparison between the 2300 maggie and 2.8 kb .

if maggie would get their larger displacment blower out they would have some comparison for the larger roots/screw blowers.

****, I maxed my 43lb inj. on my 2.2L so I went to 72's. So are you going to have a A2W intercooled blower and A2A intercooled discharge air? haha. After my last conversation with a Kenne bell employee I basically said Fuc$ that company.
