Listers,
   Please ignore my previous message! I had asked many questions about how 
to build up an engine to extract the most performance from a supercharger. On 
reflection I'm not sure that the type of mods I was asking about would be 
proper 
in vintage racing, which is where I plan to use the car. The Judson paperwork 
stress's the fact that the unit should be attached to a stock engine. I have a 
strong urge to soup up the car, but feel that much of the stuff I want to do 
would 
not be in the proper vintage spirit. I will, mostly, stick to magnafluxing and  
modifying the crank fillets to increase the longevity of the crank which will 
be 
more stressed with the supercharger. This should also lighten the load on my 
wallet, an important consideration.
