I don't know anyone with a 3.4, maybe a few of the sponsors would be able to assist in this one.
I'm looking into the Kenne Bell 2.1 for my little ole' 306 :karla:

I know someone with it and he blew his engine sky high,on his shelby:eyepop
Be very carful and get the fuel set up really good.

I think the KB 2.8 is the Mammoth. That is the one I am looking at. Both are great blowers. But, you need to upgrade more than just the blower. You will most likely need to upgrade your fuel system especially if you are going to use a lot of boost.

I hope you have a built motor for the KB 2.8 or W 3.4, cause if not your not gonna make the power out of it you are hoping for. I had the 2.8H and made 620ish to the wheels at 20.5psi, on a stock motor. Do your research and homework, and you'll find that those blowers only produce with built motors that can hold the high boost.
MM&FF did an article on one that did 700HP a while back with a stock bottom end. One recently with 643HP on pump gas but was limited because of the stock fuel pumps. I plan on changing out the entire fuel system.

All I'm saying is look on svtp, ask questions and see what them guys are getting with the 2.8's & 3.4's on stock motors. They will all tell ya, you are on borrowed time if ya got a 700rwhp, with 24-26 psi. Running 24-26psi on a stock motor is suicide waiting to happen. I read the article on MM&FF, and they said it would probably take 24-26psi to get to 700 mark, but didn't tell you how long the motor would hold up. I just don't want to see ya'll guys paying an arm and nut for new motors. As for me, I'll never go back to a blown car. Took me only 16.8psi to get to the 767 mark, on pump gas:P. 16.8psi is alot safer and easier on the motor than 24-26psi,plus after 19psi, you should be running race gas only or a mixture. :wink:
PS, it is a hell of alot easier to tune return style, compared to returnless. With returnless, it's harder to trblshoot which out of the 3 pumps, if not all, may go bad. Going return style, you just gotta worry about 1 pump.

Not completely true...you have to have enough fuel and air to support a blower of this size...i put down 668rwhp on my KB 2.2L @23#'s pumpgas + meth and when i went with the 3.4 whipple crusher i put down 758rwhp at 23#'s pumpgas + meth. All internals are stock and no port work to heads. Soon as i return from afghanistan crower stage 4 cams and fox lake ported heads are going on with billet rods and better pistons..should hit 800rwhp on pump gas and meth!
