35 hp. Pretty tame compared to aftermarket blower standards. Upped to 55 hp for the Series III, but Bonnies never go it.

I haven't heard of anyone swapping to an aftermarket supercharger. Most people just put a smaller pulley on it so it spins faster, thus creating more boost. But you gotta have supporting mods to do it.

There's a Gen V M90 from the Series III, and I think the MP112 has a kit.

I don't know much about superchargers and what will fit the 3800s, but I found a guy named Dean who has a Whipple supercharger, no idea what numbers it can put down. 3800Pro seems to have a lot of info on superchargers and what different ones people are using. Heres a pic of the Whipple, I wish I could pop my hood and see this :eek2:

There are whipples as posted, they don't suffer from heat losses like the roots blowers, there's also centrifugal blowers, but that's a completely different thing.
