Hi, I have spent too many hours flying cross country lately, but on my
latest trip I cam across an add from a company in England that makes rootes
type blowers in three sizes to fit 1.5 to 4.7 liter engines. I then
thought about the possibility of fitting one of these to a 1500 Spitfire.
I know this was an aftermarket accessory in the 60's, and have an article
about a blown Herald. I have also seen a blown Bugeye and a MGTD. Anybody
ever seen, thought about or owned a blown Spit? I would be interested to
hear from anybody who would know if the 1500 could take it. Thanks,
