Thumbs up SUPERCHARGERS

HELLO, JAY,

I HAVE BEEN DOING A LOT OF RESEARCH ON SUPERCHARGERS.(CERTAINLY NOT ENOUGH TO BE CONSIDERED AN EXPERT). I WANT TO INSTALL ONE IN MY EXCALIBUR COBRA WHICH HAS A NEAR STOCK 302.

GIVEN THE FACT THAT THIS IS MY "CRUISER" (AS OPPOSED TO THE "BRUISER") AND IT HAS FAIRLY "TALL" REAR AXLE GEARING AND I WANT TO IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE SIGNIFICANTLY ACROSS THE ENTIRE RPM SPECTRUM, I HAVE BEEN LOOKING SERIOUSLY AT KENNE-BELL. THE TWIN SPOOL, WHIPPLE DESIGN, PROVIDES SUBSTANTIAL BOOST RIGHT OFF OF IDLE AND FULL BOOST BY 1700 TO 2000 RPM. IT IS ALSO REASONABLY SMALL AND COMPACT AND "VERY" QUIET. (THIS ALLOWS YOU TO "SNEAK-UP" ON THE BIG BLOCK GUYS). IT IS VERY VERSATILE BECAUSE YOU CHANGE THE BOOST PRESSURE RANGE JUST BY CHANGING A PULLEY.

IF YOU CALL THEM AT 909-941-6646 THEY WILL SEND YOU A COMPLETE CATALOG, PRICE LISTS AND A BUNCH OF GREAT TECHNICAL INFORMATION. THEY HAVE AN E-MAIL AND A WEB SITE AND A FAX MACHINE BUT THEY DON'T RESPOND VERY WELL TO THOSE. I CALLED AND HAD THE INFO IN THE MAIL TWO DAYS LATER.

I HOPE YOU GET SOME RESPONSES FROM MORE EXPERIENCED GUYS. I'LL BE WATCHING.

Y'ALL HAVE A REALLY GREAT DAY,

BLACKJACK
