That could be pretty cool. You'd have to have a serious cowl hood to house that big bastard. I bet it makes boost pretty damn low in the range.
An industrial engine that makes 1k ft/lbs of torque, **** dude you pull a house with that damn thing!

Re: New Ls supercharger
It says torque is 395 @ 2k rpm The engine is fuel limited to 5600 RPM's. Most industrial engines are not ran at like 5k rpm because the fuel consumption would be through the roof. Also things the are designed to be driven like with an engine like this (ie an electrical generator) aren't meant to be spun at that kind of RPM.
