i found a really nice mid '70s Scout II on the web once...  had a really
nice series of discussions with the owner.  it's been really nicely
modified, lifted, fillet aluminum dashboard, custom gauges, full roll cage.
it was a super nice Scout.  tilt front end like Tom M's racer, too.  the
thing that really stood out about this one was that it had an SV392 in it
with a custom aluminum intake and a B&M roots blower mounted on it.  the guy
said he had it custom made for him and it cost a mint to have it done.
looked really sharp.

i've heard of other guys with blowers mounted on SV engines, but i haven't
ever actually *seen* any others besides this one.  seems like if a roots
intake can be custom fabricated, maybe it's not that hard to have a less
dramatic intake fabricated.  but what do i know?  probably nothing.
