Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.
thanks sam wanted one of those photo's for one of my business ads
the good times on the water are good but the best times are racing
The early version looks very similar to the Duesenberg/Cord/Auburn gear off crank driven superchargers, the only difference being a 1.5' long shaft heading into the main housing. The boost on those was around 9 lbs at 1500 RPM, but, they had undersquare motors with ungodly low end torque.
Very cool article!
Yeah, the Paxton supercharger is like the Cord/Dusie unit
But the valve on the outboard is not a supercharger - just a timed valve

You almost have to wonder if Robert McCullough ever knew Fred Duesenburg and had any inspiration from him.....They kind of thought the same way with their designing abilities
