Is there anyone in Aust who is running one of these original 60's Shorrock supercharger kits.

Not many if any because they were uncommon in England in the 60's so they are even more uncommon in Australia, in other words they are rare as.

They sell in rough condition for around $1000, but you then need to get them serviced and set up by someone that knows what they're doing. The manifolding etc for them is pretty complex and specific for A-series and you need all the fiddly bits.

Pretty cool though!

I think that there is a white traveller /countryman in Melbourne running one. I used to have the details it belonged to a bloke in South Australia before it went to Melbourne.
