Hydrogen supercharged V10

So apparently the 3v v10 has an evil little cousin. Not awesome on power because of emissions, but the charger looks to be the one we've been searching for....
This is the company who made it and THE supercharger without the Ford logo and whatnot.

Yes but air is the majority of the compressible gas. Therefore running either gasoline or hydrogen your boost pressure will be very similar. For that engine to be pushing 20 psi of boost means it has a large supercharger. If you can do it, it would be very inefficient to underdrive a blower to 1/4 of its capacity.
Sure you can lower the compresion ratio of the motor so the feul will remain stable to 20 psi but i bet you a bufflo nickel I can make a more nominal power band with less psi and more C/R. It's give and take...

I emailed ford commercial out of michigan about getting part numbers for the motor. I guess we will see if there are any parts lying around.

That hydroboost engine shuts off the blower when running on anything but hydrogen.
My point was the engine isn't "BUILT UP" for the extra boost.
It does, however, have a big blower

Wooops, all along, I thought the link above points to Ford's offering where it was said to be a multi-fuel engine. The one in the link is 100% hydrogen.
I wonder, if the intake is available as an orderable part?

These engines were made years ago and only came in shuttle buses. Once the shuttle buses were decommissioned the engines were removed and destroyed. I've been trying to get my hands on one for years and have connections at ford and they say its a no go. You have a better chance of winning the powerball than getting your hands on one of these units.
FYI: The front drive setup for the supercharger is the same for Ford Lightnings

Ford went to all that trouble building that awsome SC V10 and running on Hydrogen and it puts out less power than a NA NPI 2V V10.
Shame on you Ford, you could have least put a gasoline version in the lightning.

Why in the hell would they destroy the motors?!?!?!?!
