Anybody seen this? The pricing is getting a bit far from the "this would be fun to try on my Amazon" stage but who else on your block has a supercharged vintage volvo?
Anybody here have ANY knowledge of this beast? It's from Conshohocken PA...really?
B18/20 supercharger on ebay
Can't seem to make the pict lnk work. If someone else can drop one in I'd appreciate it.
Looks like three Frankenstein of superchargers. Thats my input.
Found some great info here on supercharging old volvos. Fill up your coffee first, it's a long read.

Picts of one one another 544 from Turbobricks forum.
If it is anything like the Judson chargers for VW's it might add a whole 10-15hp.

Interesting... I've never seen one of those before.
Vintage Performance in NY sells the more modern supercharger kit described in the VClassics article. I heard Steve was trying to sell that engine (wanted Phil's N/A B20) although I don't know if he ever did.
there is a guy in the Portland Oregon area who has a S/C 122. I spent some time chatting with him and his biggest complaint is the mileage SUCKS balls... hiway mpg is middle to upper teens ![](/media/img/icons/smilies/googly-18.png)
