6.2L Supercharger Kits - responses from companies

[MMC Racing]

Kenne Bell - no plans to make new truck kits
Whipple - Plans are in the works to create one in partnership with Ford Racing
Vortech - on their roadmap to make a kit

The announcement of the Harley getting the 6.2L and potentially other models should help the companies with the economics of developing a kit. I'm excited to see what comes available.

What about Magnacharger? The G8 folks have had good luck with them and they use the same Eaton rotors that GM uses in the LSA (CTS-V) and LS-9 (ZR-1).

I would love a whipple, I had the small whipple (2.3) on my 2004 Cobra, and making over 600 ft/lbs at 3500rpm at the tires is alot of fun :rockon: now having a 3.3 or bigger on the 6.2 :bow:

No thank you I prefer my blowers without a heat soaking problem.

A blower is a blower.. If there is a heat soak problem, it is being spun up near or beyond its efficiency range and/or the kit had a poor heat exchanger/intercooler design. The older Eaton roots blowers were known for this when pushed and we used to combat that with porting and intercooler upgrades when upping the boost. The more efficient Eaton TVS blowers that they use now should be given a 2nd look.

I am trying to get hellion to put out a turbo kit.

I'll give an Eaton a second look right before I take it to the scrapper.

I emailed them a long time ago and got no response.

Procharger will drop a get soon. They usually beat Vortech by a few months.
