[Diy_efi] 10hp injected turbo

Hey Joel,
IDK about the Chevy unit, and my project is long gone, but I used a Ford 
smog pump (from a 460 ci engine that was running two pumps) to 
supercharge a Honda 80cc 2-stroke for a while.  I used it because it and 
some other Ford smog pumps had the CFM rating on a tag on the pump, and 
the math worked.  Worked better than did my Honda, the fuel pump-less 
bare-belted flame-spouting occasionally-leaking beast.  I managed to get 
to the limits of the tires that were available back in '92 on my budget, 
as it would easily burn them off.  It definitely gave back what the 
raised port took away from the bottom end, although fuel mileage went 
out the tailpipe. :^)

BTW, aren't Kohler rods problematic?  No personal experience here, just 
what the small engine guys I know have said in the past.  Might be worth 
asking around before pain strikes in the wallet area.
