Supercharger!!!

Hi ,just wondering,i'm building a chopper based on a Steamer engine,you remember i asked about the wiring diagram,well Mustang did say that it was going to be a rocket ship,well it started me thinking,a friend of mine who always tries to get the better of me(we were riding classic Triumphs )he bought a Kawasaki KZ1100 to keep me quiet,so i'm building my Tiger chop,i'm with 885 cc and 85 BHP,he has 1200cc and 120 BHP,but he must be loads heavier,i'm going for a sleeper,it must look (at least at a distance)like a classic 40's Triumph,so what i'm about,i have a supercharger from a Toyota Levin (Roots type),it has its own oil system so i don't have to worry about that,i will have to build a drive system on the left side of the engine (no prob),and i'll have to lower the 10.6 to 1 compression (custom thicker head gasket)should be able to get the same 120 BHP,i'm missing the Tiger carbs any how so i'll just use a 45mm Weber twin barrel carb that i have here already,pull through the carbs and blow into the engine,so i was just wondering if you just might know of anyone who has done something like this ,it would be nice to know of any pit falls in advance. :twisted:  :roll:

Hi EvilBetty,i have seen the vid on the Rocket 3 and i'm aware of the rotary supercharger that they use,i have a turbo charger inlet housing and impeller from a Komatsu front end loader that i was planning on making a supercharger with,however that was before i got the Roots type charger which i prefer,i think the displacment is more posative with it.Besides it looks so wicked and the sound is simply awsome.It really would make it a muscle bike. :twisted:  :roll: I will post a photo of the charger tomorrow evening. :D
