    More than you want to know

    Robert Paxton McCullough started making superchargers for flathead Fords in the thirties. After WWII he modified and expanded his product line. In the fifties he made his automotive division a separate company bearing his middle name (Paxton). Then he sold it to the Granitelli brothers, then they sold it to some private investors, then they sold it again, then this last outfit sold the rights to the older supercharger designs to Craig Conley at Paradise Wheels in San Marcos, CA. I believe Craig has some parts and will still rebuild old Paxton superchargers for about $700.

    Paxton superchargers have earned a reputation for locking up within 10,000 street miles regardless of maintenance. Welcome to the world of hot rodding where your results may differ from magazine articles and ads.

        Real hand grenades, flatheads with a blower. Salt flats littered with crankshafts, etc as the bottom end of a 3 main bearing engine with a cast crank exit the block

                Jerry, the last setup I saw for a flathead was priced at $15 large ones with no guarantee that it was operatable.
