Diesel Bronco Tom
Ive seen a couple threads about superchargers in light duty diesel truck applications. I know root style superchargers actually were concieved for diesel engines of course im refering to the old detroit 8v71s etc. though they were two strokes and totally different animals than our idi's. but I digress.
I know the pros and cons of all three types of forced induction systems, however iv always been partial to the big polished root style blowers, to me nothin looks better than that big monstrosity gleeming on top of the motor and sticking out of the hood, it just adds a whole different mean and nasty attitude to a vehicle. And the sound, I love the screaming whine of a blower as opposed to the *****-like whistle of a turbo
Anyway, to the point of my thread, Iv always had an idea for a project that I fully intend on persuing when i Graduate and get better established with the facilities and equipment needed to attempt such an endeavor. It will be one of a kind, as you can tell from my dually diesel bronco, I like doin stuff that hasnt been done before.
That idea is for creating a forced induction system for my old idi that consists of not one but TWO Root style blowers!!!!! Much like this setup:
Call me crazy if ya want!! And i'll agree with ya all day, I am a crazy ****** F****r!
I have no doubt it can be done, and like i said i fully intend on doin it. What do yall think?
