I got to ride in with the blown 8.1. Rowdy. I'll put it this way, with the 8.1 it was way quicker than a 3/4 ton Yukon was ever intended. With the 9.5 he told me it loses traction in 3rd gear north of 60mph.

As fun as it was, for what I do with mine it would be complete overkill. It's worth every penny though. I saw it before he installed it. It was very well done.
I finally talked with Larry from Raylar and he told me to keep the factory suburban brackets and notch the frame as the high mount a/c compressor would cause problems with clearance and the new supercharger. So now I face that dilemma, ditch the supercharger idea or notch the frame.
