FS: New KB 2.2 blower only (not the kit-just the blower.) Got this to swap out with the 1.7 but don't plan to do that now.

Also includes 8 rib pulley kit and a couple of 8 rib pulleys.

$1000 obo

Just to clarify-this is a brand new 2.2 that has never been used and still in the plastic from KB.

for the 4v?

It was bought to replace the 1.7 on my Mach so I got it for a 4v but I am pretty sure it can be used on other motors. The 2.2 blower\compressor was used on several different kits not just for the 4v's. I think the blower itself is all the same but the rest of the kit would be different depending on which motor.

Do you know what the "rest of the kit" costs?

No idea but I would think used kits could be found on ebay and other websites fairly easily. I am pretty sure KB only does the full kit so buying the stuff from them is probably not an option-actually getting them to sell me the blower by itself took some phone calls. You could give them a call to see if they will work with you though.

If you have a 03-04 Cobra then I think you would be in pretty good shape. I am not sure what parts came in that kit but it was probably pretty minimal since it haad the factory eaton, IC, tubing etc. Somebody who has installed a KB kit on a Cobra may be able to jump in here and say exactly what else would be needed.

You may want to go with new injectors etc. but most of the other parts should not be an issue being used. The kits come with a tuning chip but you are going to need to get it tuned anyway.



Could be a great budget kit for somebody to piece together.

So when you say kit what does that consist of? I know I need a new tune, injectors, will upgrade to a return style fuel sytem. what else? pully?

The 8 rib pulley kit is part of the deal but that is for a 99-01 Cobra\03-04 Mach set up. You may need a different pulley depending on what boost you end up with. I do not know exactly what you are going to need-I do not own a Cobra. The kit I am running was for a N/A Mach so it had a lot more parts involved including the IC, tubing, intake etc. Your best bet is to talk to a fellow 03-04 Cobra owner who has upgraded to a KB or to call KB themselves.

I don't think the 03-04 Cobra kits had much to them other then the compressor itself but I can not say for sure.

No, it is a 2.2. I had a typo on the intial post and it would not let me edit it. The 2.2 was initally the big monster blower for the Cobras but they are now up to 2.8 I think.

The paperwork says:

Compressor (New) S/N MX422 6144 $1199.00
(There is no part number.)

The part number for the 8 rib set up is:

F2600-1 8 RIB KIT 6.5" 1 Bolt $399.00
10 PSI 8-RIB Pulley $69.00

I live near Cave Creek and Deer Valley in North Phoenix.

i believe the snout length is different from the cobras to the machs because the cobras had the separate blower belt spaced out further. i think that they used the cobra lower though

EDITED:

After I typed this I realized that the compressor does not have a snout on it. Was not an issue for me at the time since I was going to use the one off the 1.7.

So the length issue is not a problem But a snout would be one of the parts needed to piece it together.

This may only be a good deal for somone who needs to replace their 2.2 compressor and has everything else or someone who finds a complete kit with a bad compressor for cheap.

So when you say "new" are you referring to the condition of the blower or is it the redesigned style without the catch can??

Do you have any pics?

Where are you located?

Nope. All I need to outrun you is a set of slicks and maybe a new pulley. :icon_cool:

I can't wait for this one! :bouncy: I also have a set of slicks you can borrow.

I thought you needed this blower to get past 11.5?

No the blower was the least of the problem. I am only running 8 lbs of boost. The biggest problem I have had has been the tranny or should I say trannys-lol.

The blower was going to go on a new built motor to put it ~650 hp but it didn't work out and I have decided to put it off for a while. Looking at venturing into other interests i.e. riding quads with my son so I am putting the 10K I would have sunk into the new motor into a set of quads and a trailer.

Thanks for the offer-I appreciate it. If it was in any condition other than "brand new-still in the plastic from KB" I would take you up on it BUT I am pretty sure anyone who is serious about buying it knows what a 2.2L compressor "brand new-still in the plastic from KB" looks like.

Well get that thing ready so we can head out to the track. Get those 60's down and we'll have some fun. :woot1:
