Supercharged and EFI 1975 Z1 900 KZ 1000 Drag Bike

Hello All,
I am working on a 1975 Z1 900 with a fresh 1075 engine. I was looking for an old Z1 or KZ and found this roller project on craigslist with a fresh engine that my friend Jim at Clifford Cycles happen to rebuild for the pervious owner back in 1994. The guy took the bike home and never finished it. And never fired the engine. My Buddy Jim (Yes same Jim at Clifford Cycles )here in Omaha has offered to look over my shoulder as I wired it from scratch. He gave me a spot in his shop to work on it. We were kicking around the idea of ditching the carbs for EFI and I drug in this supercharger that my dad purchased for 100 bucks at a swap meet that he had on his shelf. My dad was going to try to adapt it to an old Ford hot rod with 2 carbs. His project did not seem to be going anywhere so I snaked it. He was less then thrilled but he now sees it going to good use and is excited to see it being put to use. I will try to post some photos. Jim has designed the manifolds he wants to mount the head. We are waiting for his machinist to finish them up. Once we have the manifolds I will build the sheet metal Alum intake between them the charger. We are planning on running it off the crank on the points side. Is anyone aware of KZ cog belt drive that someone already makes ?

attempt of me trying to attach a photo

I remember seeing that bike on craigslist a long time ago.

The photo with the blue tank is what it looked like when I first brought it home.
Here is the Supercharger as I pulled it from my dad's shelf.



Mocked up on bike

I purchased it 2 years ago this month. Got it locally here in Omaha . thanks for the note

This is a sketch I made of the proposed crank drive. Since this sketch Jim and I have looked at making it less complicated.

Where is your leg going to go?
