1936 Ford Mccollouch supercharger

[Concept Cars]

Hi,
I'd love to hear from anyone familiar with the Mccollouch supercharger used during the late 1930's- early 1940's, this is the pancake style. I'm attempting to rebuild a 37 unit for use on a 1936 Ford, I'd love to hear from someone that has one, knows of one and would especially like to see some pictures of one mounted on a 1936 Ford. The challenge is how to route the upper radiator hoses with stock radiator connections and learn what customizations can be made to adopt it. Thank you!

I searched YouTube for mcculloch flathead supercharger and found about a dozen hits most of the videos are about 45 seconds long but you can pause the screen and look at the plumbing. Hope this helps.

This may be peripheral, but I seem to remember that some of the McCullough's actually had the cooling system water circulating through them with the attendant plumbing.

Street Rodder had an extensive 2 issue article on them a year or two ago. Google www.streetrodderweb.com
