There's a guy posting on youtube with a supercharged 3.9 V8. No doubt his email will be on there and you could get some ideas off him :)
Not sure if its rover powered, but here's his profile.

Compliment him on the motor when you see him! Supercharging is one of the option i've considered on the pinto. There are a couple on youtube. Very distinctive sound...and acceleration :twisted:
There are plenty of the Eaton ones off the mini that i've been looking at, although i doubt it'd even cause so much as a slight draught through your engine :lol: There seems to be so many different routes to take, although you seem to have covered most of them :wink:
