Just to stir things up a bit... I ran across this on the do-it-yourself
fuel injection mailing list:
If you're already looking at a full custom setup, I would seriously
consider the Opcon Autorotor, sold in the US as the Whipplecharger:
Whipple Industries
3292 North Weber
Fresno CA 93722
209 442 1261
209 442 4153 fax
(Hopefully this info is current.) This is a Lysholm screw type unit,
which is positive displacement, but a lot more efficient than the
Toyota Roots units, or the Eaton modified Roots units. This means
less crank HP consumed, less heat and more boost.
Cheers.
