Inliners International Forums General Discussion Blown and Injected Home built Paxton super charger setup possible for sale??? 194-292

I am debating on selling my Paxton supercharger set up I made for my 250 Chevy.

I fabrcated the supercharger billet,brackets,pullies (three pullies IIRC)

I do not have a lot of time right now,to pull it out of a box & install it on a mock up engine, But I will get around to it & post some pics.

The Paxton is the SN 89,(the strongest case)w/a race compressor wheel.
Gearless planitary ball drive(very quiet!!)
It was rebuilt years ago,& I put maybe 50 Miles on it.Then put it away in a box.
It worked great!!
I ran mid 12's with this Paxton.
That was only 8-9 lbs of boost. You can get more if you use a smaller cam than I did.

My cam specs are 585 lift 236 248 @ .050. w/a 115 lobe center line.

The Blower unit cost me $1200. All the rest was fabricating,& materials.
I made it to use serpentine belts w/a spring loading belt tensioner.
If no body here is interested, I will put it on Ebay,,,,when I get the time to.
I am not in a big rush.....
Note::: I am not going to give it away,so dont try & offer very little for it.
There was a lot of thought & effort involved to get this setup made.
Just seeing if there is any serious interest in this.
Thanks!!!!!

Come on Hank Ya got love them tire kickers. I see them everyday. lol

Could this unit be used for other motors such as a 302 or 261?

Hank,, I've read this post a million times,,as you might of read I got a couple demons to solve first,but I am interested, I was looking at the procharger for example, but could use a system already done fo my app,,
which side does the unit mount,?
are the pulleys cogged or v-belts,, if they are cogged what do you use for a damper,,?
carburetor or f.i.???
anything else you can tell me,,,thanks

The blower mounts on the passenger side next to the distributor.

"I made it to use serpentine belts w/a spring loading belt tensioner."

I have made serpentine pulleys for this setup.

I used the standard high performance GM 8" damper.
So, all the accessories,I moved forward, so I could run the better damper,night & day difference I will say with changing dampers.

I used this system to blow through three 48MM DCOE side draft Webbers.

It would work better if you had fuel injection.
It took a while to jet the Webber carbs correctly,plus a lot of money for jets,emultion (SP)tubes,bigger needle & seats,etc.

The blower unit itself can be made to work, but all my bracketry are for the 194-250 engines.

Do you have a picture of this when it was set up?
Interested for my 250 six.

More tire-kicking than anything else, but I might be interested in something like this.

I'm out...Please sell this to someone else.

I am still working on my Evil Turbo drawing board with a T04 off of a Grand National staring at me on my workbench. Stop staring at me you Devil's-breath-blower you!

Sorry, halloween is coming and I get inspired. Some one please give me a 292 exhaust header so I can make a J pipe and start the painfull process!
