My buddy with a '53 VW splitty likes to play with different low buck engine combos, he has a 40hp T1 VW engine in it right now and just bought a supercharger for $300 (canadian) with free shipping from china.
A Judson supercharger kit is about $2K. He needs to find a side draft carb and is wondering if he should mix some oil in the gas? A judson has a bottle that you fill with marvel mystery oil for oiling the SC. BTW he does have the original numbers 25hp engine, 0 to 100kph in a couple hours...downhill. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) He's copying this guys engine intake, but he'll have to make some changes to fit into a bug. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DrLlRJ8QEE |

I installed a custom turbo kit in a 1914 type1 motor for a bug I had, it had a harley davidson carburetor on it via draw-throu. That worked very well. If I remember correctly the main jet was fully adjustable needle type, but it's been about 20 years and I didn't build that kit....
I always wanted to put a small SC from an 80s thunderbird 2.3L into a Teener... still might someday |
