460 EFI SUPERCHARGER

Just curios to know if anyone is running a Kenne Bell supercharger on a EFI 460? I know they're not cheap, but I have driven one with a Vortech S.C. and it screamed!!! I have looked at several different brands, and have decided the Kenne Bell looks about the best. The Vortech was great, but it seemed like you needed to have your foot in it all the time. I do a lot of towing with this truck, so I figured that the twin-screw type S.C. would be the best. I have read that the Kenne Bell can make power from 1000 rpm on up the scale. I currently have 3" exhaust, K&N FIPK, and a superchip on this '96 F-250. Also, should I do away with the chip if I go with the supercharger?

Matt

Why not get some awesome heads, some compression, and exhaust? You'll easily make over 400HP naturally aspirated.

460 EFI SUPERCHARGER

Mike shaffer, shami02 here on FTE is doing just that KB conversion, built performance heads out of my stock 460 EFI heads and got nearly the same flow as a set of CJet heads, put in the CJ cam and look out with the EFI and mass air conversion it was fun till she just got too old. had to go diesel 10 mpg to 20 mpg cant beat that. email me if you have any questions i tried quite a few different performance angles with the 460 EFI
