CARB legality - Kenne Bell, Whipple, Vortech
Would changing the stock blower to the above mentioned blowers be illegal in California?
Do these things have the EO number on them?
Thanks!

I stand corrected
Quoted by Kenne Bell
http://www.kennebell.net/faq/faq-answers3(2).htm
What is the Warranty on a Kenne Bell Supercharger? 1 year unlimited mileage.
Does the supercharger void my new vehicle warranty? No.
It is against Federal Law for a Dealer to refuse a warranty claim because an aftermarket product has been installed on your vehicle........ bla bla bla...........
Are Kenne Bell Supercharger Kits "50 State Legal?"
Since 1991, all our kits have been "50 State Legal" with a California Air Resource Board Exemption Number. Some kits may be only "49 State Legal" and in the process of being California certified so, if in doubt, check with us. You can also check the internet at http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aftermk...S/devices.htm. Then type in "supercharger system."

Every one of the above mentioned blowers is CARB-certified.
BUT, they are only certified for a standard F-150. If it's even possible, the only way that I can think of to make then perfectly legal on a Lightning would be to swap out all L-specific parts with standard F-150 parts.
But the smog guy would have to be pretty sharp to catch the issue if you showed him a CARB cert for an F-150 approved system.
