A little too Rube Goldberg looking for me. Must use a frame mounted generator.

Re: Frenzel
I guess I'm confused on the Op's query. Does he own it, manufacture them or is thinking about purchasing one? Maybe it's color choice, I don't know.

I just thought it interesting that they are being recreated, and posted it on here primarily as a matter of interest for other members. Ok?

Experiencing detonation until the RPM's increase is odd any detonation when you stomp on it is a cause of a number of things. To much centrifugal advance , a lack of octane in the gas your burning and what size jets your running in the carb or carbs. The Ford flathead design is very sensitive to detonation especially when blower boost is added to the fun factor. Ronnieroadster

Re: Frenzel
Really awesome. I'd love to have a supercharged flatty v8 hot rod someday. Maybe after my banger is done
