Hi all,

I am thinking of blowing a race engine. I have to Supercharge it within my regs race - has to be a period job, (i.e. carb not injection).

I have been reading up on how to blow engines and have noted that that the Charge cooled Esprit Turbo's (the 4's) had blow through presurised Dellorto Carbs and an intercooler before the dense charge goes into the head.

Does anyone have a diagramatic picture / layout of how this work (I woul just be subtrituting the Turbo for a Supercharger), but would like to use a charge cooler to keep the charge temp down (for obvious reasons).

Any help much appriciated.
