Re - all the mails on superchargers.

This may be a stupid question and simply impossible but has anyone ever
tried supercharging with the standard 2.5 lite Lucas Injection setup.
Obviously you would have some fun with the mixture metering but after
thats sorted it would seem perfect. ie no maifold vacuum required for
fuel delivery as fuel is pressure forced and relatively simple plumbing
to get forced air to throttle bodies.

just wondering!

That carb is also used as an upgrade on turbo Corvairs!
