Cool stuff. Pretty excited to see this. I was just about to start a FD project with one of these Rotrex's back in the summer. Monster Garage in Singapore did one already. I was going to copy it as close as I could. The hardest part would be getting the bracket offset right for the pully. The rest is easy.

I had an 81 FB with a streetported 13B and an old school Camden blower, car ran good but I later ran a large nitrous shot as well. The car ate transmissions and rear ends. I will be watching this project...

Hey Guys,

I promise you next year it will be up and running

I've just been busy with other things in life such as running RE-Speed, coming up with new products for it, and also doing all kinds of local fabrication for people.

I should be picking up all my laser cutting for the Gas tanks today!!! I'm really hyped about that.

I just finished tweaking 6 go karts that are now gear limited to 50mph! I increased the intake length by an 1-1/4" to bump up the torque on them as my customer has a tighter track to run them on and needed a bit better torque.
