When it comes to overrevving the supercharger, i know that a bigger pully will fix this, but as we all know, you will lose bottom end boost.

The device I am thinking of is a variable rate, vbelt drive pully.

There are two faces to a v drive pulley, facing each other at an angle. (obviously)

The pulleys im thinking of are capable of spreading their faces apart or moving them together.

Everything old is new again...

Paxton did the exact same thing on the superchargers that came FACTORY INSTALLED on '55 T-birds. That was the F-code engine... 312cid supercharged...

(oh wait... or was it the Paxton-blown Studebaker engine from the same era? Damn I'm getting fuzzy...)
