| Post subject: | Forced induction with AC? |
I’ve been searching around for a while now, and it looks like my only option is to get creative with a turbo charger… unless? I’ve seen a few pictures on this site and the internet showing that turboing a slant is possible with an AC compressor, but the pipe work involved and the fitment… looks a bit beyond my fabrication abilities. Has anyone successfully supercharged a slant with AC? I’m sure the bracketry required would push my abilities too, just wondering if it’s been done before or if it’s possible. Alternatively… would it be possible to run a newer compact power steering pump, and use it to run a hydraulic motor & AC compressor setup? Similar to a hydroboost brake system. I know this is something that is used in the heavy equipment industry, but haven’t done enough research/math yet to know if it can be scaled down to a slant friendly size. |

Not sure on the super charger with A/C ... but....I’ve seen a few pictures on this site and the internet showing that turboing a slant is possible with an AC compressor, but the pipe work involved and the fitment… looks a bit beyond my fabrication abilities.

Brian Mimken Has Done a remote Turbo back near the Leaf spings and has AC and PS in his '74 Duster. I am sure he can tell you more about it. I am not sure he is on the forum much so If you want his contact Info PM me and I will get it to 'ya. |
