Re: Looking for a blower

This should be in the power adder forum.

To lower your compression, you can install new heads with larger combustion chambers, you can install new pistons with a bigger dish, or for a minor change you can install new head gaskets with a larger compressed size.

You can put a blower on practically any engine. How long it will last is a function of how strong the parts are in the engine.
