I can't wait for the next installment in you saga. I'm amazed at all of the fab work and mad scientist hardware coating that you are putting into this project. It is going to be amazing! It was so much easier when I installed my KB back in '06. Install the kit (that came with the smaller inlet manifold so the BBK FPR fit with no issues and no bypass/blowoff pipe) 30# injectors, C&L (off the shelf) TB inlet tube, larger TB and MAF and a custom dyno tune and I was done. I'm thinking of eliminating my AC and smog pump and installing a shorter belt since I'm in the northeast US and my 1990 AC doesn't work anyway.
So glad for you, the light at the end of the tunnel is getting super bright and big. Give yourself a engineering degree for this KB supercharger, Vintage air conditioning, brackets, wiring, and everything during this (quick) blower install.
Mr. Kasl I should have mentioned this awhile back when i saw another video of yours, and knew i should have pointed out fornyou to use a pressure regulator from a Lincoln Mark VII. They are short and fat with the correct length stubby. I had it on mine naturally. Wish i could have saved you some time a couple of weeks ago, before you got here.
The hit you go thru for a little more power . That's why i don't bother with it. for street use isn't worth all the hassle . If I was building a race car , yes i would but i'm not, So my 5.0 will stay as is. Maybe take out that big X cam and go back to stock for better driveability and gas mileage. it's got plenty of power. Enjoy your supercharger.
Kenne Bell's are great street blowers. Good manners. With little to no maintenance. Had a 1.5L Kenne Bell that had well over 10k miles on her before I went to a 2.2L unit.
Agreed, power is always fun.i jave many simple bolt ons, a b cam.its a fun car.really rippy in the bottom and midrange acceleration very drivable.although i would go through all the work, its cool to see others doing it without completely raping the car, stripping it down for the race track.
Great update. Looking good. I did the black oxide treatment to my hardware back in 2019. Looks great, but condensation and time require me to wipe them down with penetrating oil now and then to keep the beginnings of rust at bay. How have yours held up?
Thank you! Oh interesting. I have used it on nuts/bolts in many other places as well i.e. bell housing bolts etc and not noticed much of anything. That said, this car really only sees sunny days as well though
Some people don't do them. DECH never did. As long as he doesn't throw slicks on and launch it, it shouldn't be a big deal. I however prefer to have them.
Hey brother I have a question concerning your fuel pressure regulator and I’m sure you have probably thought of this a thousand times already but I need to ask just to be sure. You said that the bottom of your blower is literally sitting on top of your rubber 90* elbow. So, is this creating a situation where that rubber 90 will have a hole rubbed into it or be compressed in some way causing a restriction? Second question, is it possible to mount your fuel pressure regulator somewhere else close to where it is now? Anyway, you have done an incredible amount of hard work with this and it looks great. I hope it works just the way you have planned. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Vibration shouldn't be an issue, everything is bolted down and rigid so nothing can really rub. There is no way to relocate an fpr on a stock fuel rail. I would assume most aftermarket fuel rails wouldn't work on this setup either as they are a lot bigger in diameter than the factory fuel rail.
Hey buddy! Great minds think alike - LOL. I did think of the restriction however I "redneck engineered" a test with the rubber 90 on the regulator on the bench with a clamp and a vacuum pump and all seemed to work as intended 😂. As for the rubbing - If I was building a driver that was going to see 10's of thousands of miles each and every year, I would probably rethink this whole operation. That said, I have a feeling I will most likely rethink the whole fuel rail/regulator situation at some point down the road regardless because I personally think it is a little hoaky. All of that said, the hobby fund is starting to run dry on this project and my beard aint getting any browner on this iteration so for now, we're gonna live with it 😉😂
Before the big 1999-2004 Lightning and 03-04 Termis, the older Kenee Bells for rhe pushrod setups did not have wording on them for the 1.5, 1.7, and 2.2. Getting closer to the mod motor era, KB began putting KenneBell on them, but the blower went from being a discharge up and over to being a downward discharge through the intercooler/manifold. When the 2.1 was released they didn't reorientate the script to read correctly. Just used the snout caps as is and sold them anyway.
thought what about the blue, like the super charger snout because right now that's really the only blue on the motor really but it would be equal on the eyes it wouldn't be all one color and 1 part being blue
Take the Vintage Air setup and brackets out of the equation, and the KB setup gets way easier. Use an AFM Power pipe and he doesn't have to do any cutting. So many things could have been done differently to lessen his install time. Still good to see people installing Kenne Bell's.

When this thing is finished, it’s gonna be a masterpiece
Thanks buddy!

Congratulations! It’s been a journey but worth the wait!
LOL so true my friend! Thank you
So close! Looking great 👊👊
Thanks dude!
Awesome work man! Can't wait to hear it run!
Thanks buddy! Me too!
Looking good! CANADIAN SUPERMAN APPROVES
Thank you sir!
That is one hell of a jigsaw puzzle to get that blower on Brother! You're making some great progress!
LOL so true! Thanks bud
Can't wait to see the smile on your face when that thing gets back on the road and you hear that blower go Weeeeeeeee
So happy for you brother. Glad it's all coming together finally.
Thank you sir!
kb blower looks so sick, really clean install
So glad for you, the light at the end of the tunnel is getting super bright and big. Give yourself a engineering
degree for this KB supercharger, Vintage air conditioning, brackets, wiring, and everything during this (quick)
blower install.
Hahahahaha - thanks buddy!
Very nice work buddy hats off 👏
Thank you my friend!
That's one gorgeous notch fox, I always found the notches look then the hatches.
Thank you

Oh really? I did not know that. I'm heading over to google to have a look right now!
That is cool! Don't ever see those anymore!
Thank you!
Awesome work bro, looks killer
Thanks sir!
Great work!! This thing is going to rip!!
Thanks buddy! I sure hope so 🥵

I enjoy my KB on the street.

Start it up for fuck sakes already😂
He's gonna gain a hundred horse? I wouldn't call that subtle!

Ur gonna have a 7.1litre stock fox. Fuckin love it😂 Can't wait!
LOL, technically I guess you're right 😆
I'm one of many who have never seen of heard of this supercharger, I thought I had seen it all for the 5.0 cars.
Yes!
Looking good bud
Thanks pal!
I would paint intake tubes same as valve covers. Looks like OEM Ford. Let us know what paint you used on valve covers. Thanks.
The paint I use is made by Goodson and its "cast' color
I think the air intake pipe would look good body color especially if you had magasquirt speed air density and it was all one piece
I'm more of a black and metal color in the engine bay kind of guy personally but I appreciate the advice! 🙏
That thing will be so fast
I sure hope so 😂
Tim the tool man Taylor approves.
Love your attention to detail, kinda surprise that you dont have subframe connectors on the car thou.... basic mod even nicer with the adder power.
Some people don't do them. DECH never did. As long as he doesn't throw slicks on and launch it, it shouldn't be a big deal. I however prefer to have them.
Thank you. Yeah I'm 50 50 on them on this car. I 100% agree on a vert but for how I enjoy this car, I personally don't really see the need

It looks fucking awesome. That thing is going to rippppp!!!!!
Thanks buddy!
What’s up with the yellow 4 eye in the background 🤔🤔
What is the brand of your four post lift?
Torin
May have been easier to relocate the compressor, that Infamous mentioned
I spoke about this on the pod, it definitely would have made for more work
What size injectors are you using?
42#
why are the kennel bell words upside-down ?

You should consider moving your battery to your trunk
I like them upfront personally
thought what about the blue, like the super charger snout because right now that's really the only blue on the motor really but it would be equal on the eyes it wouldn't be all one color and 1 part being blue
Man. Could you please just get it in already. Your killing us. Are you ok?
Don't you start too! 😂
Do u remember gettin blown in the 90's? I do😂
Barley 🤣
Those pistons look skinny light...
Wow what a pain. If I went supercharger, stick with the easier install typical Vortech.
Take the Vintage Air setup and brackets out of the equation, and the KB setup gets way easier. Use an AFM Power pipe and he doesn't have to do any cutting. So many things could have been done differently to lessen his install time. Still good to see people installing Kenne Bell's.
The vortech is a completely different power curve
This is why the LS swap is so prevalent……The Fox engine is so Fugly.
