I Want One!! Where Can I Get One?? And What Stall Is Recommended With Such???

 

[Dan Buick Man]

That is insane, but does something like that exist? There are some weird superchargers out there for different applications.

 

[bishir]

Yeah I've seen that... those come stock on 03-04 Cobras. :biggrin:
My Harley Truck has one too, but it's painted black.

LMAO...Can you also get it with the 12" DVD screen on the back????

Actually it looks like one off a EMD {General Motors} locomotive. I worked as a locomotive machnist and we had to rebuild them on a regular basis. The air filters were as big as a garbage can.

Ain't that true....hahaha

damn, whats that? a 24:17 supercharger? That thing is massive, could always be from something like a plane. Tanks had some big components, but I dont think anything like that...

 

[RobsIron]

Man that thing probably robs more HP than what it produces. Check out the fuel line.

 

[Turbo Indian]

it takes about 3 states to spool it & 1 better be Texas.

No spooling problems with a supercharger! If that is in fact real, that supercharger would have to weigh about 400 lbs! I know the 6-71 I had on my 66 Chevelle weighed at least 100. If it is a fake, excellent photoshop job.

I am sure it will turn up in a magazine if it is the real deal. Don't know how you would see where you were going with that thing sitting there.

 

[FlyinGN]

it way be ON the engine but it sure as hell is not a working supercharger. The thing would prolly take more hp to turn then what it produced at idle.. All a big one would do is to produce the amount of air needed to run a really big engine(locomotive) engine and would be wayyy to much air for a BB chevy. Id say BS

Its there so you dont need a wheelie bar..

If it is off a locomotive and to me it does look similar. The weight on them was about 650# And I don't think it would last long as the redline on a EMD loco. is 975 rpms. That thing would idle faster than that. Nobody in their right mind would do something as stupid as that. Would they?

A 6-71 jimmy is designed to pump 426 cubic inches of air per revolution into a 6 cylinder 2-stroke diesel (6 cylinders x 71 cubic inches = 426, hence the name) meaning a 6-71 on an old 426 Hemi spinning at crank speed should be pumping 14.7 pounds of boost at WOT (exactly double atmospheric pressure, pumping losses notwithstanding)...

On the off-chance the housing IS real, then there ain't no rotors inside! I haven't a clue of its pumping capacity, but it's got to be well into the cubic FEET department per revolution, and with that nearly 1-1 pulley---methinks that would be a bit too much air for that engine!

That said--it's either a photoshop job or some railroad employee having some fun...
