Description
Each year there are unbelievable custom car shows in Daytona Beach, Florida. This year was no exception as you will see with this series.
With a blower, the carburetor functions basically the same as it would on an unblown engine, except it now sits on top of the supercharger. Although this is somewhat of a simplification, you can think of a roots supercharger installation as removing the carb and intake manifold from the engine and reinstalling the blower and blower manifold in its place and then bolting the carb on top of the blower. Then a belt is attached to pulleys on the blower and the crankshaft to turn the supercharger.
