A supercharged 350 ? That`s crazy! (and cool at the same time.)
It never ceases to amaze me at the things people were able to engineer with limited tools, knowledge and resources. We have alot to learn from all these brilliant people.
I was the builder of this bike! I can give the full account of building this bike but in short, its final configuration was using a cut down 500 cc barrel and head, plus a home made short stroke crank to make it a (very) oversquare 350.
It was a very competitive bike and ran close to the world record for the standing start mile. It was also very competitive over the quarter mile.

Forgot to mention that the drag bike is part of my lifelong motorcycle blog: http://geoffjames.blogspot.com/2009/12/growing-up-bit.html
