Simple progression, after all there is an output shaft at that end of the charger to drive a water pump :)

Im not so sure the dashpot cover will help with anything though *hehe!*

You learn something new every day :) I've never actually seen a supercharger in the metal so I had no idea

the alternator is a good idea indeed, but there's sodd all belt wrap around both the supercharger and the waterpump!

Personally, I don't think it'll work

It's not as bad as the morspeed supercharged twin cam but that waterpump doesn't look great.

The water pump works on the MPi, why wont it work here? and I dont think you could get much more wrap around on the charger pulley. Aslo consider that its a polly V 5 groove blet

LOL!!! Copyright those pics!!! lol
I was told the dash pot in blue helps aid cooling! *wink*
It is working very well indeed. Well apart from the boost issue at idle but a part will be ordered for that when Neil is back. I do have some better pics and will get them on here when i can.
I am a bit of a car spaz and am not sure what you mean by the 'wrap around' and water pump issue?

What i meant by inefficient was the way the fuel is drawn into the car with the vmax kit. Through the carger. Also, it seemed very hard to set it all up with a weber. When it was running well, it was great but that was very rare. If you put your foot down it would stutter befor going and that was a little annoying!!

I think the waterpump will be OK, but everyone I've spoken to who's tried a blow through setup has had issues with belt slip under load on the chargers. looking again it's not as bad as i first thought, but you could get a bit more belt wrap with the aid of an idler gear between either the charger and waterpump, or the charger and crank pulley.

Done it already. (well close like that)

Only problem was that shaft what comes out from supersharger.

That little piece there in shaft ends is warm fitted.

When supercherger temp rice that peace leaves off because when altenator rotaties there is much more torgue comparatieve water pump what it normaly rotate.

I made a whole new shaft there...
