Thumbs up Re: Blower question

I'd start saving those aluminum cans...and if you're really adamant then collecting bottles too and possibly moving to michigan to get your 10c per each

Re: Blower question

i dont see how that works.... one blower will superspeed the air and pass it on to the next that will.... keep the air going the same speed?

Re: Blower question

its just eye wash , you could make it so its like a twostage but it would build up ridiculous heat , he might just use a hollow shell on one of the two
the side by side version like from magnacharger would work better

idea's for the trucks and the order of things to do are taking shape and get closer to being realized , a few more months and i be able to start building for real

i complete 2 of the trucks intoo running fashion one custom and one basicly stock the thirth will be sacrificed for parts

Re: Blower question

i can see a side by side working better, but like you said - lots of heat! those machines are on the verge of shattering apart everytime they are run it seems. everything is on the edge and fragile with that kind of power

Re: Blower question

I've met the guy who owns that car. Incredible interior in that also!. He's a nice guy and gets a lot of jokes about having multiple blowers. That's a little too much when it starts to look like a periscope sticking above the roof,lol.

I have seen a few of these... One of the blowers is hollow... All just smoke and mirrors... You gotta be silly to pull that off!! I think it looks ..... Be proud to have 1 blower hanging out of the hood!
