It's been proven more effecient to run one larger blower. I guess if you got the smaller blowers cheaper or free, and had some time and fabrication skills, why not?
Well, considering the only other company that makes a positive displacement blower set up for an OHV is Kenne Bell....and the fact that it won't come anywhere close to making this kind of power, or running those sorts of times....I would say no. Especially when you consider the relative mild engine set up (sedate Crane Came, stock bottom end and GT40 iron heads.)And nobody's ever done the same thing with a single blower setup (minus the junk yard Eaton M90's part, of course)?
Again....low-10's, 130+mph trap speed, stock like drivability, copious amounts of low end torque, sedate engine specs, decent mileage, small package.I guess if his goal was to save money, he may have succeeded....at the cost of looooots of time. So I guess it depends on how valuable your time is and how much you enjoy the process...
I just don't see the benefit of using two blowers instead of one, especially when it requires so much extra work.
The way he has his intake set up, with the inlet tubes directly across from each other, it seems to me like the two blowers would be fighting each other - causing a ****load of turbulence in the upper intake and reducing efficiency. You can look straight through one of his inlet pipes and out the other....What if one of the blowers is a little stronger, or one stops working?
He should have at least put some kind of downward slopes/curved baffles in the middle to direct the air downward...or had the two inlet tubes curve in from the back so they're not directly facing each other...
But then again, I'm no engineer.
I'm not trying to take anything away from the guy - it's definitely impressive and he has more knowledge and skill than I do. He obviously did something right to get the numbers he's getting.
Could have been much easier is all I'm sayin'
