 |
|
Can anyone tell me if a Judson supercharger would work on a 1600dp engine?? What modifications would be needed, if any (other than the pulley)?? What is the lifespan of these?? I realize that this is a rare option for VW and was introduced in the late 50's..but having a supercharged engine in a bus sounded really cool

The supercharger or the turbo? For the turbo, I would be sure to use external cooling to keep things in check. Unfortunately for the supercharger, it would be overworked and fail. |
i was refering to the trubo

Marvel Mystery Oil. It's available in quart size from your local WalMart & automotive supply stores for about $5.
Just regular pump gas will work fine

I used a AMR 500 supercharger on my "scrap" 1600 DP .. 1.25 rockers.. single dhla 40mm..
It runs very good, lost of torque..
(picture was taking during the build v2.0)
