Hey Guys,
Last night I watched 2 videos of datsa73's Super Bee from the time it still had the A15 with the Eaton 'charger.
WHERE CAN I GET ONE???

Seriously. I must have watched those two vids nearly 20x a piece. I'm pleasantly overjoyed, sad ('cause I can't afford it), and hungry for answers to a ton of questions. But I'll try and keep it together...

1 - How do you set your carbs up to suddenly go rich at the flick of a switch?? I mean, I understand Weber's can be very tolerant and user friendly, but still....at the flick of a switch??

2 - How was the heat problem treated?? I have an A15 in my GX and after replacing a busted radiator with a bigger one and putting the elec fan in front, she was running nearly 25% hotter according to the heat gauge. Not to mention it was a Roots supercharger.

3 - Why the Roots? Ok, I understand it was probably easy to come by and probably a lot cheaper than a twin-screw or centrifugal. But considering you already had a bov set up, wouldn't a centrifugal with a significantly smaller pulley have given you more? Don,t get me wrong, I love pdc's personally and I'm not turbo/centrifugal fan. Just curious anyhow.

4 - I recall reading Super Bee had an H165 diff, but what kind of light-weight gearbox can take that kinda grunt?

I'd really like some opinions on this setup. Especially ddgonzal's. Considering you took some footage. I'm seriously considering it. Perhaps I may even save up for a BBM twin-screw.

I'm really really impressed.
Feel like a kid again....
