aren't ALL superchargers overdriven? isn't that the whole idea behind supercharging? if that's the case, then turbochargers are 'overdriven to buggery' while they spin at 100,000rpm.... 
|
By overdriven, I mean the blower is being spun faster than it was ever designed to. I wasn't talking about the mechanical drive ratio, which quite obviously must be overdriven.

there is a kit from castlemaine rod shop that adapts the SC14 to the commodore V6 (3.8L) and runs 7psi of boost. there is also another kit for the RB30E that can run 10psi of boost.

I'm quite aware that people have put SC14's on big engines, but I can assure you those SC14's won't last long. Inlet temperatures will be horrendous also. All superchargers are designed to work efficiently in a very specific airflow/pressure envelope, just like turbos, and if you try to push them too far out of that envelope things will start to get ugly. That's not to say it won't "work", to a certain degree.

2x SC14s would be a plumbing, bracket, manifolding and belt nightmare if you wanted to keep it in an underbonnet situation - let alone trying to make it look neat.

I agree 100%, and I certainly wouldn't attempt it. The more sensible approach is to use a single supercharger which is correctly sized for a 3.5L engine.
