I stood 3 feet away from a KB Cobra on a dyno at Fun Ford Weekend last year in Jersey and the wine was so loud it literally almost blew my ear drums out... I had it recorded somewhere but I cannot find it

?????? http://www.kennebell.net/techinfo/fo...-flowzilla.pdf

numbers look comparable to anything I've seen posted on here from Vortech users
and KB's are supposed awesome low rpm mega torque throttle response

Ive seen a few videos of a KB on 5.0s, from what ive seen there not that loud on the 5.0s, but I think it just depends on the amount of boost really.

Ill try and find the other one later, you can really hear it, its from outside of the car.

mod motors make more horsepower than any pushrod engine. well. almost any. pushrod motors are torque monsters anyways. if you're looking for the kenne bell to make a mean street blower then yes, it would cause it will produce insane amounts of torque on a 5.0
