Very cool stuff, but in this day and age, why not a Whipple in lieu of the roots???
A screw is just as easy to install, can be used with carbs, or EFI and is better by leaps and bounds in every conceivable way. The only downside is a higher initial cost over the roots, but in the long run, there is zero comparison in blower technology.
Power, maintenance and appearance are light-years ahead.
Called Whipple and the 510 is $7400 without anything, no snout or top plate, and when I asked who reps them for the 510 so I can get the correct snout and pulleys, they didn't have an answer.. So yes they make blowers, but good luck with any service or assembly help...Calling BDS for help with my Whipple really seems kinda stupid to me.
