v.cool tho
Steve,
The T6 could have handled the switch-over no problem, and Harvey was confident enough in the K-gate.

I didn't say he invented it, as the idea has been around ever since the internal combustion engine , he just made it work VERY well. In the end, as I said, it was only abandoned due to the size of the supercharger required to provide sufficent boost in the rpm range we wanted, would have required a MUCH larger space than we had .

I assume if I phone him up to ask about it, I will get told to get fucked cause he doesnt give away research secrets, and the same from you?
