OK, Before I even go into my semi technical thingy I just want to give the disclaimer that im not the smartest person in the world and I still have ALOT to learn about engines so feel free to rip this post to shreds.
I was just wondering if it is worth while to put a blower on a stroked car. My reasoning for doubting the usefulness of the blower is just because if I understand it correctly a blower trys to over come the engines vacume so that it can force air into the engine, which brings with it more gas. And stroking an engine is increasing the engines natural vacume allowing it to move more air in one cycle, (ie. the change in CUI from 351 to 408) Im sure a big enough blower could over come the vacume and still feed the engine even more air but is the money worth the gains at this point? But then again people strap blower on big blocks too and they have a greater vacume than a stroked 351 so my entire thought pattern is probably wrong.
LOL like I said im in way over my head and figured I would see if you guys could help me understand the workings of the engine stuff.
