A gentleam in Connecticut, Nick Formica, has just completed the design and
installation of a "bolt-on" supercharger... a GM-type blower like on the
ones that Buick uses on their current models... Park Avenue, Riveria, etc.
Everything had to be engineered, but it's a super job... plenty of room and
PLENTY OF VAROOM! I've driven the car... quick is an understatement. Whether
the rest of the drivetrain holds up is another question.
Nick is a 6-Pack member and has just done a series of articles for the
6-pack newsletter. I'd get in touch with them. My understanding is that at
some point a "kit" may appear.

Subject: Superchargers
I wonder if anyone knows whether a supercharger was ever offered for Triumph
six-cylinder motors. I know that Judson sold them for 4-cylinder Triumphs
(and MGs, etc.), and it seems like a supercharger would really sweet on a
six cylinder. If not, does anyone know? Clearance problems?
