Blower kit on ebay.

Looks like a huge project. Is this an early supermodel kit?

The manifold looks like it started out on some other engine? Chevy?

I'm going to take a wild guess you are talking about this monstrosity. Haven't seen pics of this setup in a while.

You would be 1,000 times better off buying a kit from one of our vendors. This looks like a train wreck.

The fact that no MY is listed scared me away instantly.

I suspect the only thing there that might be useful is the pulley.

I looked at this last night. Its a cambden supercharger. It would take a lot to get this functional. Belt, rising rate fuel pressure regulator, PCV/ISV modifications, intake tubing, blow off valve, air filter, oil supply/return hoses ect. ect.

I would also be leary of the actual condition of the supercharger itself. Looks like its been put to good use for a while.

That blower has been posted before - no way in Haiti would I even consider that thing.

If that intake fits up to some 928 engine, might be worth it alone. Scrap the rest and adapt new tech.

BIN is too high. Unless you really enjoy reinventing the wheel or just want to be different vendor supplied SC with support is much easier.

Very old design roots type blower and running wet....the injectors blow into the compressor rather than into the intake ports....that creates all kinds of potential issues. And we KNOW that if it fits a two valve it will not fit a 4 valve ! one or the other !
