Reply to "Pantera #6665 w/twin Superchargers"

Forest doesn't monitor this site regularly, so from what little I know of the Magnecharger as used on Panteras, the system was originally designed to fit Corvettes with low hoods. To work on a Pantera with the engine in the stock position, Steve W. put the blowers on backwards and drove them with a left side jackshaft. Hot Rod magazine did a street blower comparo' in the '90s that included the Magnecharger, which produced a max of 8.0 psi on a 350 cu.in. engine. Forest rigged two GM TBI injectors to supply air/fuel for his stroker engine, which ran nicely once some drive belt issues were straightened out. He traded them off for a 510" big-block in the same Pantera, some years ago.

I know of two complete systems available and fiddled around with one for awhile in my shop. It weighed 78 lbs with the dual as-supplied 50 DCOE Weber side-draft carbs. J DeRyke
