MG TD TF 1500 - For Steve Averka

Steve, I just received the attached from someone looking for you re: Marshall 75 Supercharger: Bud

Steve,

I’m not sure how long ago your query was posted on your TTalk website, anyway I’ve just found it.

I have an MG TC (XPAG engine) that I’m thinking of fitting with a Marshall supercharger similar to yours.

My supercharger is actually a Marshall A75 which is an aircraft cabin blower, except for the port shapes it is identical to the J75.

I have recently bought some bits from John Bibby – inlet manifold, supercharger drive end cover, carburettor manifold, crankshaft pulley, pressure relief vale and some seals. Although I had to wait several months for John to reply, I found the best way to contact him was by phone. I have his contact details if you need them.

I’m interested to know how your project is progressing, particularly:

* Have you installed your supercharger and if so on what engine ? Presumably your TD has an XPAG engine also.
* What multiple of engine speed are you running the supercharger at and what boost does it deliver at what engine speeds ?
* Has the engine run hotter, with the supercharger, particularly at idling speeds ?
* How have you arranged the supercharger lubrication ?
* What size carburettor have you used ?
* What other mods have you made ? eg fuel pumps & fuel line sizing
* What overall performance improvement have you achieved by fitting the supercharger ?



Looking forward to hearing from you

Regards
