Do it!
This project is really boring and average so far, you need something to spice it up.

Re: SV special build - S-pokey-V.
Seeing the rest of your work you would be mad not to attempt the supercharging.
Check out the TL forum where the owner Sam did a great job supercharging his TL. Savage build man, well done. Love the idea of spoked wheels

Re: SV special build - S-pokey-V.
I've spent all day with the SV engine and frame and the Eaton M45 charger offering them up to each other in an increasingly desperate fashion and I've reluctantly come to the conclusion it isn't going to be feasible.
A smaller Rotrex type charger might be made to fit - and even that would require some serious frame modification or a compromised location - but the cost of buying one of them is about the same as getting a full monty 700cc engine built. |
