I know this has probably been discussed before, but i am going to try to supercharge my tecumseh hs50. I'm going to use a smog pump. I did some testing on the smog pump (made a adapter to hook a impact to the end, and a presure gauge to the other side) i found that at 1:1 at about 8000rpm it made 15-20 pounds of pressure. I think that is more than enough for my hs50.
I'm going to run my carburetor in between the engine and the supercharger and drive the super charger off the axle. I want to install a pcv style valve on the carb so it can still get air at idle. once i start moving the supercharger will kick in, this is basicly giving the supercharger a push start, as i do not think the engine can turn the smog pump over at idle. I am also going to figure what size pulleys i need to run so i can overdriver the supercharge.
I am going to get a better carburator and billit rod and stiffer springs and better cam, along with head studs.
What do you guys think? Any suggestions? Where can i get stiffer springs? Do they magnetos for tecumsehs?
