I'd certainly be interested in one. Although from what I remember they don't make all that much power, it would be cool to have. You don't see many of them. Plus, you could always throw one on a stroker for some serious fun.

First the 94-95 KBs are extremely hard to find. For a street car the old school kbs were heat monsters that produced high IATs. lack of intercooler. Sure you can run meth to help the issue. As you can see with oilspills hci and blower very low HP numbers. The only thing with the KB is the cool factor other than that a $1500 used s trim would be a better option.

I was talking to one of my friends
He mentioned that the very first version of the KB supercharger use to have some kind of by pass valve
That would prevent it from heating up while just driving around
But you have your foot in it start to heat up
Almost like the turbo we have on our military equipment
Let idle for 10 minutes to cool off

I think performance parts in general have gone up significantly the past 5-10 yrs. I was surprised to see that a set of trickflow heads used now goes for only a little less than what I got mine for new 12 yrs ago. Pick your least favorite politician to blame
