if its stock just go vortech. and i believe anything up to 12 psi is safe on stock motor, don't quote me on that tho.

I would get the vortech V2. But I am biased since I have one. Both superchargers are completely different. The Kennebell will give you big block thrust down low while the Vortech will give you a smooth power surge right to the top of the tach. It all depends on what you want though. Also remember to get all the necc. fuel upgrades.

if you want to be able to mess around more often and get more use out of it from stop signs and lights i would go with a kenne bell since your going to get massive torque down low

they will both give you right around the same amount. The only question is were do you want that power?
If you want the power in the lower part of your rpm range, like right when you hit the gas go with the kenne bell=instantaniase power
if you want the power up high so as you increase the rpms the power just keeps growing tot basically red line, then go vortech/paxton./procharger

+1!

I'm goin Kenne Bell cause of the INSANE power and torque down low for some sick street racing and some occasionaly track use! You can't beat the power and torque the KB creates down low! The great thing about KB's is that it's gonna keep all the power ALL the way to redline!!!

If you wanna throw some people back in their seats and pull on people ALL day!!!....Go KB!
If you want to use it more for the track then I would go Vortech or Procharger.
