Didn't know if anyone else saw this.

He's a member here. His name is Damon. Can't wait to see this thing in person. It's going in an MN-12.

I can remember when Kenne Bell 3.8 was a reference to the Buick 3.8L V-6 engine....lol...yes, I'm that old.

Wow! that's a big supercharger.

I heard that.
Back in the 80's when I was a Buick guy, I used to drive over to the K-B shop in Upland and jaw-jack with those guys.

When I got into Buicks in 1984 I used to get their newsletters. I think I still have those around here somewhere.

Oh come onnnn it'll be WORTH it just for that initial launch and 5 feet of movement. Itll be the quickest 5 foot dash any mn 12 v6 bird has ever done!!!

When I first saw the thread I got all excited thinking MAYBE someone strapped a KB on a 3.8....but went "no no no mr-wishful-thinking!" I figured it was a new blower with that much displacement. Obviously lame. Pshhh

But sure enough it was what i hoped for!!!!!!:bowdown: Aw yeeeah
