Does anyone know if Jerry Magnuson is still in business? No replies to email and no success with their phone number (530-865-7010).

I saw a new/used Magnacharger and was just looking for information. Thanks.

 

How about this? Google is your friend.

 

I did use my friend Google and got a reply that Jerry sold the company in 2009 and Magnuson Superchargers just do the vehicle portion and have nothing to do with the Harley version Jerry had.

 

Bill at Magnacharger… haven’t talk to him in a couple years. He was a great help! Try these #’s 530-865-7010, or 530-321-8133. Good luck

 

Thank you but both numbers are no longer assigned.

 

I read below contact info seems obsolete. I am interested in removing a Magnacharger from my bike, needing (various) info). No paperwork. SO far understand removal is 'uncomplicated' by unbolting(7)bolts at perimeter bottom/& top end brace and will require a cam cover, re-attach carburetor (adaptor to fit ??) and 'a compensator bolt'.. (I'm no mechanic.) My chopper has an open primary. Motor is a (now 95") TC 2008 Harley w/S&S pistons.
Also read elsewhere (so far info is scanty) that perhaps given what cams are in it (??) it may well run 'like a dog', suggesting perhaps different cams for later.
Any help is appreciated.

 

Well if this is legit, you will also need an intake manifold to bolt on what looks like a CV carb.
The static compression ratio CR is probably pretty low, if that bike actually ever ran, something like 7:1 CR is great for a blower, but will indeed be a dog without it. So honestly some show bikes get pushed around and there is no need for internals so does it run now?

 

Thanks, If this is is re: my post - yes It ran. It may be moot to say I'm not its builder, nor even first owner. SO info is scant. Yes, I need some parts intake/breather/filter manifold for the carb. In all I have managed to find to read, so far, including the ' run like a dog' (that writer's comment I had referred to re cams), here the first to mention compression ratio. I do not know what it is presently. I would for now estimate 8.5:1 - 9:1 as 'best' from other info. - on mine to be determined yet . For now, just wanting getting to run (otherwise it did well enough - I just no longer want the MagnaCharger) with it now taken off. (Unrelated I suppose, but I suspect, fairly certain at this moment that I need a ew coil too.). Any later 'tweaking'/changes tbd.

I am attempting to parse as much detail and info as I can, so happily will read it all.

 

Yep that was for you, you would probably benefit from a different cam also, if that motor was actually build to make power under boost, the grind with not be optimized for something with higher NA CR, you might want to try and peddle the motor as built, and look for a stock or hopped up Twin cam,

 

Thanks, ideas always welcomed!
