There's a Judson on ebay, auction no. 250201946628

It's for an 'A, but would it go on an 1800?

I know these are near as efficient as the modern Moss supercharger,
but what do people think it would do for a 'B?

Paul, oddly enough, there was just talk of Judson SC's on the Spridget list. 
The consensus of opinion on these things from those who have BTDT is that 
there is quite a problem with heat buildup when using them.  Also, the power 
gain is not that great even on the tiny A motors and would, therefore, 
probably be even less on a larger B motor.  I suppose you could overdrive 
one, but then the heat problem would be worse.

If all you are looking for is more HP, there are cheaper, easier, more 
reliable ways to do it.  Honestly, if I was going to add an SC, I would just 
get one of the new ones from Moss that are designed for your motor.

YMMV
