Are you trying to use that in a PC? It looks like that may not work as that PSU seems to be designed specifically to power a miner with PCIe output only, but I'll let someone more familiar with that particular unit chime in.

Looks to me like the original KB1150 power supply had a non-standard 8-pin connector that probably has a subset of the wires from an ATX 24-pin connector.
If the old KB1150 isn't totally dead, you might be able to tinker with the wires on the 8-pin connector using the ATX color code as a guide on what might be where. . If the KB1150 is truly dead, you might open it up and see what wires go to which pins on the 8-pin connector.
Is the manufacturer still around that supplied the KB1150? They might be able to supply pinout info.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817202018if you are trying to use this psu above it is multiple rails ATX 12V 2.3/EPS 12V 2.91 Modular 80 PLUS Certified 100 - 240 V 50/60 Hz +3.3V@30A,+5V@30A, +12V1@20A,+12V2@20A, +12V3@25A,+12V4@25A,-12V@0.8A,+5VSB@6.0A not easy to do so. please show us a photo of your gear. If you own the chiftek add the 4 rails up they add to 90amps and are divided 4 ways the burned psu is 95 amps on 1 rail my guess is you will kill your replacement. I also would love to see photos of the gear. right where the burned psu plugs into it.

That psu is used in A2 Terminator 2.3 TH btc-miner (dragon clone).It has two of them.One psu powers 4 blades (actually only two pcb's with 2 pci-e connector each).8-pin connector is needed only from one psu,if I remember right.It obviously powers Rasp and miner's own controller.I would use server psu as a substitute if the other original psu still works.

Server PSU + Pico ATX adapter for the 24 pins connector are working for me (and with better efficiency than those stock power supplies) Here is an example of pico ATX adapter. I didn't check quality/price of this particular one, it's just to show what I mean. http://fr.aliexpress.com/item/Free-Tracked-Shipping-12V-DC-DC-ATX-PC-Power-Supplies-ATOM-HTPC-ITX-PC-mini-pico/1290214637.html

The pico ATX is used to power the backplane that holds the raspberry controller since 24pins isn't available on server power supplies
