Anyone else see the supercharged box-body VIc on EBAY?

intercooling a powerdyne is a complete waste of time

Say it has a new Blue Pearl paint job, but all I see is white in the pictures...

Maybe a FMIC would be a waste, but with the small pressure drop of an AWIC, there would be at least some benefit.

its probably blue pearl, as in the paint flops when the light reflects

you will break the internal belt before an intercooler can be worthwhile; powerdynes dont heat the charge as much as a gear driven blower, and they come apart after about 12#'s

i hate that interior. it looks to fuckin 'hood' to me if youknow what i mean


when ever people write rebuilt motor but dont list any of the stats or parts i know theyre either idiots, bullshitters, or both

Are they still in business? Powerdyne, that is.

Belt driven is... yeah.

Did/ Do they have self contained lubrication?

I'm actually not a fan of centrifugals with self contained oiling systems. Its convenient to install, but I like the idea of the blower using the engine oil. Of course, if you grenade the engine, and pieces find their way into the oiling system, it might doom the blower.

But I'd still prefer the vehicles oiling system because I know what oil I am putting in, its being changed often, and its going through the oil cooler I installed, etc. The "hassle" of installing a return in the oil pan can hardly be considered difficult.

as far as I know powerdyne is out of business. you can get most parts at www.928motorsports.com

they dont have any lubrication, its 2 cogged shafts with a belt turning them

I like centrificals from a traction/smooth power delivery standpoint. I dont care for the KB stuff on pushrod cars all that much, if I were to run a roots or screw blower, Id want it intercooled, they build a lot of heat and generally take more power to turn

at low boost(6-8#'s) though, the kb stuff works good

Wow.

Sounds like the PDs were real gems.
