Banks Twin Turbo SBC kit
 
Has anyone used the banks kit. I'm interested in getting one for my 396sbc but would like to know who has used it and with what kind of success. I read on LS1 tech that one guy that installed it on a 383 made 650 hp and was not impressed with it. Any feedback would be great.

I haven't used one, but I have a brand new kit for sale. I don't need it, as I'm going the LSX route. I'll make you a killer deal on it.

Email me with the details. I know they changed the manifolds about a year ago. Is yours the older or newer kit

You care to back it up with some real world experience?

Ha!, Ha!, Ha!, Ha!, Ha!, Ha!, Ha!, Ha!

What a foolish remark.

Don't bother trying to give advise.

You obviously don't know what you are talking about.

I've used their products and seen the products work well for years. Go look at the World Record Runs at Bonneville and El Mirage, that the Banks Powered Cars/Trucks have made.

You don't get those records using Crap Products!

Good Grief!

Im sure back then Banks WAS good. But now its just the same old crap with their name slapped on it to up the price. Now this is coming from my experience with the diesel performance market. Nothing they offer can out perform for the price products from the other Diesel Performance oriented companys such as TS, DI, Elite, etc...

You are 100% correct on this, but they (Banks) are not trying to do this. Banks is not looking to make the most power and they are not trying to be the cheapest. What they do is make products that increase power safely and that the consumer can not destroy a truck...

I can go stack some boxes on my truck and melt my turbo any day, or i can get a banks product that does cost more and keep my foot on the floor....
