Since stuff is not available here and is mostly for buick stuff, you have zip chances of anyone even knowing who he is. Try a US forum, KB is big in the buick/ ponti V8/V6 scene.

Kenne Belle (is a company not a man) makes screw superchargers that unlike Eatons don't heat the inlet air very much.

This allows you to run more boost with less heat rise, and associated detonation, without resorting to an intercooler.

They're boxy units to look at compared to an Eaton and cost about twice the price of an Eaton.

I looked at them but went for an Eaton in the end as at least I can get it serviced in Australia.

I'm under the impression Kenne Belle only sells complete kits to fit Yank trucks. You can find them on eBay but you need to watch the quality as it will cost you $3-400 to ship it to Australia plus Duty only to find out it's a dud.
Cheers,

Jim Belle, is one of the men behind Kenne Belle. Used to specialise in Buick performance gear and had some cool blower kits for the BuickV6. Some of this stuff will actually fit a rover V8.
