I'll have to talk to Tim about that when i call him again.
i dont know the details about what happened. All I know is he told me "see what happens when you run meth on a kb".

With your goals in mind, cams just don't really fit into the picture IMO. I would buy the I/C supercharger kit and just enjoy the safe, moderate setup.
lol a little wrong , I mean I dont want cams for just sound even tho that is a plus , My net hp goal is no more then 380 hp and that is more then enough right there. I was thinking Stage 1 cams with a KB non I/C set up would be great to hit the mark Im looking for , Not too aggressive but yet not too low. Like I said I dont need to squeeze in as much hp as possible as soon as possible , Im taking my time with it. I just want to push the power a little over the mid 300 range and then build my suspension.

I was talking to a friend's dad that runs a KB on his vette who was thinking of running meth , His tuner told him that it would be complicated. So any kind of meth is being scratched off of my list. Ill keep updated on which blower I will be using , I could get a great deal on a new self contained Cetri blower but I love the KB's so who knows.

I dont think the blower internals like Meth too much, if am not mistaken, I think it causes corrosion.

Update: Well today I received two packages , one from the UPS man and one from the Good lord himself. First my girl delivered a healthy baby boy named Caleb Michael , 8.lbs and head full of hair. Im stoked to be a dad finally !!! Now onto the cool stuff , after all that crazy hell in the hospital I came home to let the dog out and found the brown , 70's shorts wearing guy pulling upto my driveway. I know I said I was looking at a kenne Bell but I found a great on a nice v3 combo with 42.lbs injectors and a 90mm lightning MAF Brand new ! I will be running it non inter-cooled for a little but yes today was a good day. Here's some pics ........







All I need is the fuel pump , some gauges and surely small things Im forgetting . Install in spring time , looking to getting it tuned at EVI in Davison , Mi.
