    Talking Its almost alive!!!!

    Heres a quick shot of my kenne-bell twin screw supercharger setup.I hope to be finished and on the dyno in the next few weeks.As some may know,the twin screw makes about 30% less heat then an eaton which equates to more power and longer engine life.I waited till triolgy started their installs as to not crap on their lawn.My hats go off to them for making a kit as they did,because this is not for the faint of heart to try and do.Every piece I either hand made or took some ford part and modded it to fit.Overall its coming along nice I think.This is also done with the steeda underdrive/balancer combo on it which makes fitting a lower pulley almost impossible.Any questions feel free to ask.Let me know what you think.Jeff

    Did it start out as a Cobra kit?
    Is it just the pic or is the intake not connected?
    How much boost are you looking for?
    I see an extra water tank, is that the charge cooler?

    Looks good from the pics.
    Is it safe to say your well under $5000 into the project?

    Very nice Jeff. I have been itching to see it for a while! I think you will have some bragging rights when you get it finished. I hope it runs as good as it looks....

    I have been trying to find out whether my blue MM was the "first born" blue in the USA on 12/10/02. I look at your born date of 11/25/02. Is yours correct?

    You have a "real oil gauge". Tell me how I can get the same thing.

    Thanks.
