In the late 70’s a Frend and I build one to 206 hp it ran well in a model A for two years ( 6700 mi.) . the fellow that bought it from us took just a week to blow it up. Remember that this engine was designed almost 100 years ago to make 100 hp. It has three main bearings and so on. Go very easy on it. Good luck..ps cool factor 100%
Yep I know that. Joe Abbin has them but are designed for a short snout supercharger. I have a long snout supercharger. I decided to go this route instead of paying 800 for an intake another 800 and some to convert my long to a short snout. What fun would that be to buy off the shelf parts? Lol... Thanks for watching

I will take your advice. I will be improving the bottom end to handle the extra hp.
why cut up 2x2 intake you an buy a blower manifold for a flathead virtually off the shelf in new Zealand
I assume you realize you can buy an intake manifold already designed to mount a blower?
