Eaton feed location
I saw these two quotes in another thread:
And
Why would an Eaton (or Works or whatever) be more efficient if it was rear fed? A roots type pulls air in from the top, throws it around the side, and into the engine. How would a rear-feed help?
A screw type compresses the air along the length of the supercharger. As such, it makes sense that it would be more efficient if rear-fed.
Just curious.

I don't think the Eaton basic design is overspun, but I think the fact that we have a top loader makes it close to call.
The top loader very much limits the efficiency of our stock eatons.
