I wanted a pepco /Speedwell usa supercharger but it don't give much hp and at $2200 ...i remember the first time I seen one I was like I want one but tooo expensive a dual carb 36hp will beat it in hp and reliability..if I had $$ to just spend I would buy one just too spend the $$ but I don't..alot of folks use different superchargers but there not to friendly and the folks regret it and say I should could of saved a lot of time and money if I just went to dual carbs .. to me a supercharger is like 48 idas on stock engines I know a couple of guys who have a 1600 with 35.5 intakes with 48 ida's but they like to brag about how much they spend for them 😔😕 |

I have some I'm trying to get some ideas on prices and who's looking,the ones I have seem uncommon?Your right they are not made for power that's for sure I was looking at using one of the ones I have on a 36 bellytanker but to make power it will be overspeed and will die😉,but I've got bits to make atleast 1 highish boost old looking roots style blower,I also patterns and casting boxes etc to manufacture a few more if needed. |

This was my old Swiss Mag Supercharger in Australia bolted on my 56 Lowlight Ghia. Both long gone...I moved onto boring Porsches...
