Supercharged 2.3
« on: August 16, 2013, 10:20:17 PM »
So I've done a little looking around and found a couple of different people who have supercharged 2.3's. Have any of you attempted this? Most of them have used Eaton superchargers from a Thunderbird.
1977 wagon - baby blue full restoration project.

1980 wagon - (77 front clip) converted to cruising wagon. (Sold in 2015. Can’t find her again.)

The thought has been going through my mind, shouldn't be too hard to do.

Have you checked with Pro Charger? They may offer a unit for a 2.3. Don't forget the the compression ration needs to be low, like 8.5 or less.
