Small diesel engine turning supercharger

Has anyone experimented with using a cheap diesel 13hp engine to power a Eaton supercharger to increase the VE of a larger main engine. Towing applications maybe ?

Thinking the diesel could be run a constant RPM. Supercharger could be run at the best part of its map. Maybe other other power robbers could be powered by the diesel too IE: alternator,air conditioning.


What do you think ?
