Re: future speedster progress/questiond
Front is easy if you have a ring roller, rear isn't worth the trouble if your time has any value. The local spring shop charges me about the same as a new one to do it properly.

Re: Anyone running this supercharger
I have one from Aaron but have not had a chance to run it yet. It's based on a small import blower and Aaron makes all the pieces for a bolt on installation with a Model A downdraft manifold.

Re: Knocking on start up
Exactly. We're not talking about rebuilding the engine, just adjust the shim stack to spec and off you go.
