Yep. The diameter is a little larger (5cyl vs 7cyl) and it's a little longer. There seem to be more heads available for the 508 but I chose the FK head 709 for the integrated service ports.

A lot of the lowriders, or whatever they are, use these compressors as air pumps for air bag systems They use pre oilers or periodically pack them with grease to keep them lubed. Try that with an R4

The off-road crowd also uses them to build on board air systems.
