    Edit...starting on page 3 is the T modified this is going in

    I got this Graham supercharger today....seems to be in good shape.

    And I've got this banger motor I want to use for a Race of Gentleman car.

    With a little work I think I can make them work together....from what I've read it won't help tat much .....but it should look really cool.

    Hell Yeh, that will work....and you can raise the compression a wee bit as well for a bit more punch.

    Gotta move the oil filter and the dipstick will be a problem....not to mention I'll need to add a double pulley to the crank.

    Might get to make blower fit but will be summer till I get to the car. Hell not even sure what it's going in yet..either a T modified or a 29 roadster. Gotta finish up some other stuff first.

    Clark, I'll scan a photo of the setup Robert Roof used on his Model T back in the mid 1920's. Have you given any thought to running it off the back of the generator? Bob

    Boy I wish it was for a V8....but we'll make do with the banger.

    The inline looks cluttered .....hopefully not having the distributor on the side of mine will help. May have to mount the filter on the firewall or someplace to avoid the cluttered look.

    Thanks for the pics

    :D Gotta be fun! The blower should give you approx 15% more hp.......it did it on the Graham... max rpm on the blower is around 5000... good luck!:cool:

    If you need a hand with any flanges or custom machined parts just let me know.

    We'll the motor is rated at 45 hp....so that gets me a whopping 52 HP.

    I doubt the motor will turn 5000 rpm :)

    The high compression head makes it 7.5-1...I know a late model blower motor can run 8-1. No clue what this should be.....any ideas. It's not much boost.

    The high compression head is aluminum and so is the top of the blower....would look good to Polish both.

    BCC....gonna need custom flanges....this banger is a 41

    Broken....I like the way they modified that one. I think I'm taking the "easy" way out and mounting it in the stock configuration.
