Amici:

In the 1980s I put a Judson blower on a gorgeous street TR3A and proceeded
proudly to the North American Triumph Challenge in Illinois.  I should have
painted it GOLD and put it on a trophy shelf instead, because I broke the
crank reving the engine in line for the autocross.  I was not reving that
hard, either.  Judson used to put a caveat in their instructions warning you
to only use it on a 'stock' engine.  Are there no concerns about putting a
blower on a GT6 engine, and especially a prepared engine?  Has someone
proved that works?

PS...at that early NATC they did award the car a 'hard luck' trophy...a nice
pewter cup.  I still use it for coffee now and again.  I think Charles
Runyan
(TRF) provided them.  They were nice.
