At least one pump and common census is no less than a 5 gallon tank.

It depends on how the system is used. If used like a static drop & adjusted just for extra capacity, you can do a single comp & 3gal tank. If you're going to constantly air it out & then need to raise it back up again, 2 comps & 2x 3-gal tanks.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: 67c-10 on bags

I have known guys to get by with a single compressor and 3-gallon tank. I would recommend a single compressor and a 5 gallon tank. I would not go more than 5 gallons on a single VIAIR compressor (VIAIR compressor, being the one I recommend). Plus, if you decide you want faster recovery times and better performance down the road, then you can always add that second compressor laster. It is cheaper to do dual compressors from the get go, but if not in the budget, single will do the job.

We are an authorized VIAIR dealer, so let us know if we can help further.

We can help you select the right model that works best for you. I am a little partial to VIAIR compressors, but I guess working there for 6 years previously, will do that! In all seriousness, I do believe in their product, and think they are a great compressor.
