i dont doubt all the fabb'n lol. i just dont want to resort to water injection if i EVER get to that point. and bird, i see what your talking about. its probley a better idea to just make an aluminum wedge to replace that part and attach the duct to that instead of flipping it.

Could you cut the exhaust piece off one side of that fitting, cut off the right side of the fitting, and swap the two? Sounds like a pain in the ass..

I still say KB are the people to talk to next.. if you really want to do an intercooled application with their hardware, I'm sure they'd at least talk to you about it. I had planned on talking to them about the boosted I6 project when the time came, just to see what they had to say.

that might work to, im not sure how kb would react, or if they would answer any questions. i'v heard their costomer support sucks. iv also heard that people talking to them about intercoolers just get shut down lol. probley because they designed the blower specificaly not to use one lol.

the 03 cobras use basically what your looking for. now the eaton isnt nearly as efficient as the kennbell but i "think" that guys that run the kennbell on 03s still run the cobras cooler. im not saying in anyway that that one would work but im sure it would help build more power.
 
is it nesessary...no, would it help, i bet it would. would it be unique...shiznit yeah. i wouldnt doubt something could be fabbed up as basically some sort of flow through spacer under that bad boy. all i could say is it couldnt hurt too mess around with it if you have the fabbing/machining skills, equipment and time...of course...ya gotta ask yourself what kind of power you are looking for.
 
id realy have to physically have one in my hands to realy give any input on how id build something. personally, from the pic and thinking of a gt40 lower...id start with a few hunks of aluminum and a bridgeport. does the KB use some sort of lower plenum to mount to a ford lower intake or more likely directly to the heads? i realy need to see how they are installed on a 5.0. makes me feel ignorant...i should know this.
 
i myself never cared for them but now im focused on using that setup on my DOHC cause of the torque they make...

Well in that case.. if they did  in your lap over questions about their stuff, then they wouldn't deserve your business. Their goal should be to get you to buy a KB supercharger for your application, and reasonably accomodate you if you want to do something non-standard. If they can't or won't do that, then piss on 'em. But you never know until you try to talk to them.

I'm hoping you do get somewhere on this if you decide to try it.

Don't know if you have thought about this but there is an intercooler out there for the M90 on the GTPs, please don't shoot me for this.

Basicaly it mounts between the Supercharger and the lower intake. It looks and acks like a radiator. Two hoses and a small pump. You have a remote mount tank for your coolant of choice. Then the pump pushes the fluid throught the intercooler and back to the tank to cool down.

You may be able to make somthing like this.

cool...i looked at a KB on a 5.0...looks like it bolts right to the lower so im confident something could be made up without too much trouble. thats the kind of stuff that makes me wish i had access to a machine shop...

I wouldn't shoot you. :p I wouldn't normally shoot this guy either.. unless in the hypothetical situation of him mouthing off to me in person the way he has here so far in this thread, with me in the mood I'm in right now. He's probably taking it as some sort of threat to his manhood or something, though..

Of course you aren't. He's the only one, in fact. All other past issues have been dealt with, with the few people who have been on there before.

Believe it or not, I like most of you people here. If I didn't, I would not have made such a big deal over the fundraising thing awhile back. Even the people I don't "like", I don't really have a problem with most of the time. I'm just indifferent to 'em. As you can guess, I could do much MUCH worse than "indifferent". :p

BTW, to whomever gave me the negative rep with the comment:

making smart comments not thinking of other on the board

It was exactly others who I was thinking of when I made the comment.. along with myself. I am someone who is interested in KB superchargers.. and as is obvious with Manson's posts, I am not the only one. I am sure we are not the only two interested in KB superchargers or in possibly using intercoolers (aftercoolers?) with them. So your reputation response was petty and ill-informed. But please.. keep those negative rep responses coming. My rep should not be as high as it is.

Why lock it, Brian? Manson has a valid question.. and aside from the other shiznit, which I addressed by putting the one guy on ignore and laughing at the other guy who repped me, it's a topic we can pursue without too much .

EDIT: More silliness..

EDIT #2: You do NOT have my permission to pass along my ICQ # (if you have it) to people who are ignored on this forum, who wish to continue arguments after they've been dealt with. I consider that private information.
