Supercharging an L-gata.

I can probably help you Sean as I have done blower conversions on evrything from motorcycles to big block v8's. However, Ive gotta admit Ive no clue what a L-gata is mate? If you could pm me details or email I could point you in the right direction Im sure

Joking aside one of our previous members ran one down the drag strip (Dean Bottriel ran a 13.871 in 1999)

A certain bearded wiz has a blower (deans old one I think) hooked up to an L series awaiting a few finishing touches (check his signature) which is now sold

Several people in the states have done it (see Video link excellent whine)
Supercharged L28~L31 240z. Killer Sound! - Car Videos on StreetFire

Just search for supercharged 240Z and they pop up as if by magic...some are V8's of course but they filter out

I have a customer with a supercharged 240Z in progress - he has promised pictures soon...

I'll try and get a shot or two of my historic piece - as Mr. Kiddell says, previously on the Bottriell 240Z blowing through triple carbs and before that on Tim Riley's 240Z sucking on a couple of 2" SUs (if I remember rightly). Might have an old pic somewhere if I have time to browse.

My 280ZX (in theory) is sold and will depart from these shores, but the customer may require that I get it finished and running first - I hope so!

Throttle bodies make a very good base to blow through......

What kind would you go for (what's the application?), positive displacement or dynamic compressors. Blowers. Love 'em!
