    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMD_567

    The blowers and camshafts are at the "rear" end of the engine, with the blowers mounted above the power take off. [8] All engines have mechanically-controlled unit injectors (patented in 1934 by General Motors, EMD's former owner). All 567 engines utilize forced induction, with either a Roots blower or a turbocharger. The turbocharger (a ...

  4. Roots blower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roots_blower

    An Eaton M62 Roots-type supercharger is visible at the front of this Ecotec LSJ engine in a 2006 Saturn Ion Red Line.. The Roots-type blower is simple and widely used. It can be more effective than alternative superchargers at developing positive intake manifold pressure (i.e., above atmospheric pressure) at low engine speeds, making it a popular choice for passenger automobile applications.

  9. Rolls-Royce C range engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce_C_range_engines

    Most were supercharged by a Roots blower, but there were also variants with a turbocharger or naturally aspirated. [1] A later addition to the range was the SF65C model. This was a lower-rated version of the C range 6-cylinder engine and shared many of the advantages of the range's component rationalisation. It was available in naturally ...
