How do the two types compare? Power, driveability, economy etc..

Those M90`s can be picked up for a very reasonable price

This one is a similar setup..
Does it just bolt to the inlet manilfold

I always thought there wasn't enough space under the bonnet to fit an Eaton charger in the Vee? Maybe my measurements were just wrong!

I think there might be problems with heat unless you use some sort of charge cooler in the intake manifold like the Jags do or water injection.

Dam good project though. I'd be interested in the details.

Daz, I've got about 6 small tents kicking around the garage.
I'll throw one in the boot if you like.

(That was a sensible offer).

I am sure this chim used to belong to a guy up here in the north east.
If you look on the bonnet roughly in ther center there is a union flag...this is because the fibreglass has been cut away to make some room for the pulley at the end of the charger...it only needed a few mm's but it did break through the painted surface so the sticker is there to hide the hole.

Good call, though I'm not a fan of bulges, a small subtle one would be ok
