Measure the diameters and we can help. :cool:

It depends on the lower blower pulley diameter as There should be a chart on KB's website. Try this http://www.kennebell.net/techinfo/ford-techinfo/Lightning54only/pulleyboostguide.pdf

[littleJoe]

one is 2-5/8 and the other is 3-1/4...i beleive the 3-1/4 is the same that is on it running 8 psi

[littleJoe]

did i mention this is on a 95L..post seems to be for new

Yeah that is a gen 2 form, just divide all the HP numbers by half for gen 1 trucks:D

[littleJoe]

hey now,, truck was dyno'd at 520 hp.. not to shabby for a gen 1. just dont know wich pully was used for the dyno

I think those are 6# (3-1/4) and 8# (2-5/8) pullies. That is assuming you don't have a snout and double crank pulley set up. :cool:

[littleJoe]

any idea what would be exceptable boost lvl with compression ratio at 8.2 to 1?

[littleJoe]

sorry thats still running pump gas

Never heard of a Kenne Bell set up for a Gen I with that much hp especially with only 8#s of boost. Got any pics? :cool:

[littleJoe]

look on nloc under gen 1's for sale it was the 95 black with blew stripes from minnesota..havnt got pics on this computer yet..408 mass air conv. with tfs heads b303 came and much more

[littleJoe]

will be taking it to denton dragway on friday to see what it can do...hopefully tare up my friends z06

I remember that truck! It was beautiful and the Guy had a ton of money in it! You could not come close to building it for what he was asking. I am really glad that it is a Texas Truck now. There are a lot of good Gen 1's here at Talon. I do agree that that seems like a big number from a Gen 1 Kenne Bell set up. Is it being sprayed?:nana2

[littleJoe]

no spray. k.b site shows aprox...1psi gain for each 1/8 in pully...if im running 8 psi on the 3 1/4 pully would that make the 2 5/8 14 psi or am i thinking wrong?
as far as h.p. im going of the old owners info. i need to get to a dyno to make shure..any reasonable $$ dyno spots???

It looks to have a 408 and some TFS heads on it too, so I'm sure that helps the power numbers a bit.

Just searched for it over on NLOC. Truck looks GREAT!

[99WhiteBeast]

I remember that truck too.:cool: Looked like a heck of a deal for what it had in it.
Hopefully you can make it to our Fall Classic Joe on Dec 3rd to make some passes:tu:
Here are a few pics

[littleJoe]

ok guys, finally got through to k.b. today and they said the smaller pulley should make12.9 psi. just got one more stupid question..does anyone know if the bolt holding the pully on is right or left handed thread?
