PostSubject: He has   1956 EX baja - Page 2 EmptyThu Apr 28, 2011 3:35 pm

He has a bunch of rare parts or he did. He has a roller bearing crank the ones you can wind up to around 10,000 rpm. The are for road racing, street cars but they do not do well on the drag strip due to the shock on take offs. They do not like burn outs. Someone always has one for sale at Bug-O-Rama.

This is a real Supercharger not like the Judson. This does produce more than a pound or two of boost.

I bet that thing makes a great sound when it's amped up.

Is there a lot of premature valve burn with all that extra oxygen, or if so, is that something you just sort of take into account and deal with every so-many miles?

Your problems with this kind of system is seal wear on the blower blades. They run lower boost than a turbo plus it is linear.
