fellow vw friend from Reno/Sparks

This is a Oval its off to paint. When he got it was a BAJA





He is running a supercharger in it. Well here is a pic of the motor





Pretty talented guy. You should see his other rides.

Enjoy

That looks pretty nice. What is that supercharger he has?

I know what it is not. Its not a old Judson superchargers.

He had a couple of the needle bearing cranks. The ones the you can run a real high RPM's. Not good for drag racing but Thunder Hill, Button Willow the are great or maybe even on the road they were something else in there time.

It looks like a Pepco. Here is the link

That's totally cool!

That's interesting. I have to admit it's the first time I have seen that.

So much we need to learn about. But someone some where has tried it. I like to talk to the guy that did it twice.

Hey if you don't learn everyday something is wrong.

I was more or less curious if the supercharger was initially designed for a VW or something else and just adapted.

No old school VW stuff. Its an interesting story, family was involved and a bunch of super cool VW parts. This is a roots I am not to sure what a Judson is but I believe this one has better boost. I believe the Judson was a low boost blower, with that said if it did 4 lbs of boost that was 10%.

It's pretty darn cool!

So a supercharger just uses a belt to spin a blower instead of using exhaust flow right?

All I can think of is Mad Max...

I haven't seen that movie in years.

Awesome movie. I migh tjust go and watch it today.

I was thinking the same thing.
