Funny stuff in old iPd catalog

Hi Jim --

I've been paying very close attention to the supercharger project John has undertaken. He's getting some VERY impressive dyno numbers though it's still early in the R&D process from what I understand. To quote one of his posts on another board: "how does 143HP at the rear wheels sound?" This, from a bone stock ES that offered 90HP prior to forced induction.

That kind of increase is nearly unheard of.

My best guess (though I don't know for certain) is that John will likely offer the kits through his own shop, Vintage Performance Developments:



VClassics is currently working on a couple engines; one is Phil's 'MPPE' engine and the other will be a B20 built specifically with one of John's superchargers in mind. Stay tuned...
