I can assure you that superchargers can make fantastic daily drivers.

I've got to say, after seeing these pics I can't get the idea of a Procharger equipped slant six out of my head.

What size Procharger is this? What is it's HP capabilities?
The reasons I ask are because I have some horsepower requirements to reach for what I want to do.

$3500 for the kit looks like a good deal to me. Does the discharge housing of the blower rotate? I'd like to run an air to air intercooler and pointing the discharge pipe straight down would work better for this.

Will they sell the kit minus the intake pipe and carb hat, given that I'd use an EV hat and the pipework will have to change for the intercooler.

I ended up sending these questions to Bob woods and here's the answers below, I thought I would share them for those who are interested.

The horsepower capabilities of the P-1SC ProCharger is 750. The discharge housing will turn 360 degrees. We have done considerable testing with Mopar V8 engines but not yet with the slant six. We will sell the kit without the intake pipe and carb hat but it would only reduce the price by $100.00.

tooo bad you don`t make a adapter so average ppl like me can buy a supercharger... i just need a very small supercharger so i can burn woodgas/syngas woodchips and tell the oil companies to STICK-IT! .. I was searching for electric superchargers. but they are junk! .. and your superchargers are only for racing and too expensive... i only need about 2lb boost to run my truck on firewood... YES FIREWOOD!.. i enjoy fast cars and drag racing just as much as the next guy, But maybe someday you will wake up and see the (REAL MARKET) for (inexpensive) low pound superchargers to run alternative fuels.. .. UTUBE WOODGAS TRUCK ... WOODGAS CAR .. . That is your real market!! .. . a super fast car is cool as snot!... But if you can run your tow vehicle for free NOW WE ARE TALKING! .. The SLANT6 IS THE MOTOR FOR WOODGAS... the long stroke is gr8t.. lots of room in the engine compartment.. but you guys need a simple low boost (small belt) supercharger that will bolt in place of the old smog pump on the SLANT6.. .. THAT IS YOUR MONEY MAKER..... HELL come up with a design and mass produce it from china or Canada.... lol .. .. but FOR REAL!!! .. ECONOMY IS WARE THE MONEY IS RIGHT NOW.... search up (woodgas truck) on u-tube and you will know where i am coming from.. .. GOOD LUCK and make them as cheap as possible :twisted:

Last time I read about the wood propelled cars it didn't look that practical.

HHO systems seem a bunch easier. Less pollutants.

Just to clear up some information...
The supercharger this guy is trying to sell is Centrifugal making it nothing more than a Belt driven Turbo IE. No low end boost

The AussieSpeed SC is a Roots type blower Similiar to the M90 but different because it can be Drawn through

The M90 is best for EFI putting the Throttle body behind the Supercharger Max speed is around 12k producing 1.5L of air per revolution.

The Thunderbird M90 does not have coated rotors and is less efficient than the Chevy Version which does although you can swap chevy rotors in.

Neither are efficient at around 50% they are marginal and Require an intercooler. At high boost intake charge is around 400 degrees.

I am considering Using a Turbo setup in front of the Eaton to Provide low end Boost From the Blower and Raise its efficiency at the top end. It will move the required amount of air but it gets superheated. Intercooling both charges should make any boost level I could ask for and keep it cool to boot

I think much of the hot air generated by some of their proponents is contributing to global warming, however.

I think I'd mount the supercharger where the power steering
might go as I won't run power steering. Actually, I think I'd
mount the A/C compressor down there. I'd like to see more
of the belt drive system.
