Honestly no .it didn't cost must..we got the SC14 cheap $250nzd and I made the rest. I hardest part is finding a spot where the supercharger would sit and still keep the dizzy and use carbs. The easiest way would be to ditch the dizzy and go trigger wheel and EFI with ECU then you can mount the supercharger down the the left where the ALT is. Or go Eaton M90 supercharger and try and mount it on top of the manifold. We ended up going EFI and ECU using trigger wheels but ditched the supercharger for a turbo . Cheers
That's good to know.. people have mentioned it may freeze at carb end and if j was to use alloy it wont idle well (ok for race not so much for road use).. but I'm not sure but to just sort it in case ..I had a mate 3d print me a SC to Carbs adapter and it fits well so will just have that made out of a nylon material that's fuel/chemical and heat resistant.. so that should solve any potential issue.
Biggest problem with boosting pinto is over 8 psi standard pistons collapse in the second ring land turning it into smoke machine. But dont buy wessco or cosswork But toyotA R22 pistons skim crown 6mm and now you go toooooo 17 psi all day 260bhp Biggest problem is how to reduce timing, best to do this with affordable after market electronic ignition 😊
Yeah I have a turbo pinto... This SC set up would have been made different way and easier to package if my nephew had wanted to go Standard alone ecu and use trigger setup. And EFI.... but that may happen at some point.. I will be building him a motor for this setup and I believe it will make around 7psi ...so should be fine.. I'm running 10 through mine at the moment and that's on a standard motor with ARP head studs..built a bottom end for that with forged rods ,under piston oil squirters and cosworth pistons.... but havnt needed it yet lol
I really wanna do this in my sierra one day, just gotta get the bits and a proper dizzy controller etc.
Did it cost much to put together?

If it not charge cooled or inter cooled , I would leave no water in inlet as supercharger makes inlet charge hotter so no chance off ice forming.

Won't fuel damage the blower seals?
No not at all. They just has a gasket at each end and that's it
Not at all in most cases it cools charger and gives better seal for more psi
For get about all that put a 302w in it
It's for my nephew and it's fun to try... only owes him $350nz so far
