Its been a while since I was on here!

Couple of new pics of the Luv

I am going to be supercharging the engine with most likely an AMR500 (just trying to find a decent one for cheap). I have a 45mm DCOE Weber to use with it.

Idea is to run the SC just forward of where the stock carb sits and the side draft weber on a 90 degree home made manifold. If I run a 2:1 pulley it should see around 8psi max and this will keep the unit under its 16000rpm redline.

Anyone have any tips or ideas here? It will be a big trial and error system for me currently.

I think this is same type? On a Corolla. Might give you some ideas on mounting perhaps.

Interesting snout setup to line up the pulleys. To be honest I have put the supercharger idea on a bit of a back burner while I work on my Cortina but still keeping an eye out for an AMR500 cheap.
