ok...so i pulled a super charger of one of the cars in a lot, and it is a supercherger for a 4 cylinder motor. i can make it fit on my 914, but have a question or two...
first of all, is there anyway that i can get it to even turn with the motor? because a belt is supposed to turn the pulley, and i dont no how to get it to work. and second, if i DO get it working,somehow, would it even have an effect? i like the supercharger, it works fine, and i dont want it to go to waste. thanks. |

Maybe you can run it from the stock 76 smog pump pully?

Maybe you can run it from the stock 76 smog pump pully? I also thought of this, but I don't think the drive mechanism for the smog pump would be sturdy enough to drive a supercharger. The drive pulley was connected to a shaft that bolted to the inner face of the fan. The shaft ran through a bushing located in a tripod-like bracket that bolted to the outide of the fan housing. Neither the shaft or the busing bracket were especially heavy duty. A rubber v-belt then drove the air pump. The pump was fairly small and probably wasn't much of a load. I think the configuration could work, but the parts would have to be redesigned for a heavier load. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
