70 Cam Guy Posted September 18, 2009 Share #3 Posted September 18, 2009 Cool idea, I've wondered about supercharging, everyone adds turbos (with good reason) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyZ Posted September 18, 2009 Share #4 Posted September 18, 2009 How did it work out for him? I suppose he had O-ringed his block?? Did he tell you any details?Very curious... Looks NEAT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ovenfood Posted September 19, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted September 19, 2009 it didnt work he didnt know how to set it up 25 years ago but thats all changed dont know to many details im sure next time i see him ill pick his brain a bit he says he could get it to work but had more important stuff on back then if ur interested i could get a basic out line of how to get one to work from him, id love to do it for the awsumness of being odd and rare it would be easyer to go RB or L24ET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arne Posted September 19, 2009 Share #6 Posted September 19, 2009 This one is much more recent and should be getting close to road-ready.http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisZ Posted September 19, 2009 Share #7 Posted September 19, 2009 I tink the build at some point looks fantastic, i just can't stop wonder if it actually will fit in the car, it looks like it will be to close to the inner fender and what about those SU's, doesen't look as they will sit straight up, more like a 15 degree angle.Was it ever installed in the car ?Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=Enigma= Posted September 19, 2009 Share #8 Posted September 19, 2009 (edited) Chris, it looks like the engine has been canted to the right to compensate for the space the supercharger and manifold is taking up. Notice that the engine is mounted on a level crossmember in the second pic. In the last pic it appears that the carbs are in fact level. Interesting build. Man would I love to have a supercharged L28. Edited September 19, 2009 by =Enigma= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
