Shorrock superchargers were used on a few factory tuned BMC sports cars.

Here's another type of supercharger on a classic:


Here is another, same supercharger but different layout.



Trying to figure out what kind it is.

Edit: Looks to be an Eaton Supercharger. Seems that you can get new kits but I only found them so far (with a quick search) on Ebay UK.

That's a supercharger off of an 02-06 BMW Mini Cooper S. GRS Motorsports makes a kit.
Puts 90hp at the wheel.

I use to have a Judson for the A-Series. I played around with it for a while and a few years late got nearly $1300 on ebay.
