I don't know the specs on the smog pumps, but I love the idea. You may just have to start with a smog pump from a smaller motor (four cylinder) and experiment from there.
I put a smog pump from a "Luv" truck (Isuzu I think) on a Tecumseh that I ran on my Doodle bug. Loved the sound when it started. WHAP! On the Doodle bug where my butt was practically over the rear wheel it was a beach to start without getting unloaded so it was the most fun thing in the shop except for the time the throttle spring came off. It unloaded me, banging my head on the shop floor, bounced and rocked over until the tire got some purchase and came almost upright, hit my '55 Chevy, richocheted off my tool box. I got my fingers jammed in between the frame and the grounding stap trying to shut it down. Shocked the **** out my hand and I couldn't feel anything but fire in my hand. Sat on the floor of the shop for ten minutes half way between tears and histerical laughter. Methinks it pumped way too much air for the little Tecumseh.
Can't push the air through a carp. Air has to be drawn /sucked through to make the carb jets work.
but if you encapsulate the carb in a sealed box and pressurize the whole carb itll work,ive done it on my mustang with a carb
Some guy on the Just 8Ns board used a smog pump off a 70's chevy to supercharge a 8N Ford tractor.
