I bought this brand new / NOS B&M polished supercharger intake (along with a bottom pulley & spacer and polished snout) off eBay a couple months back and went to install it on our Dart a couple weeks after purchase. It bolted on great but boy was I surprised when I went to fit the supercharger on it.
It wouldn't bolt up.
Now I was at a loss as I figure they were all pretty much standard and most of my small blowers are B&M set-ups.
The one I was using was said to be a 162?!?
I also have a couple others 142/144, 174/177 too and none of those fit either.
So now I'm really confused as to what blower fits this intake.
It has a fairly large opening for these smaller superchargers and two sets of blower mounting holes (side by side) and a second set of mounting holes at the rear of the intake. I thought this is so it would fit either the smaller 142/144 blower or the larger 174/177 units. However that appears not to be the case.
Also it looks like which ever set of (side to side) holes I use, makes the supercharger sit off to that side slightly making the opposite side only having 1/16 - 1/8" of sealing surface on that side of the intake opening hole.
At first I thought maybe this intake was an oddball that was custom or something, however I have since seen two other intakes which were the exact same thing (same part number).
Part number on the original B&M box is: 91074
Casting number on the intake is: 8901070
Anyone know what supercharger this intake will work or was designed to work with?!?! I'd love to use this intake as it is very low profile.
