http://www.holley.com/HiOctn/ProdLin...-144_CSBP.html holly bought B&M

 

thanx guys thats what i was looking for >

 

i called the 1 800 number on the site to get a dealer near me and teh dealer they gave me didnt have any thing like that on his computer and sed they must have put them as a dealer because they thought for some reason they could order it direst for me.

does any one no what this 144 mini blower cost because on the site it doesnt say. i think it would be a realy cool thing to put on my engine. and am realy intrested in it.

 

Probably in the $1,500.00 range.

ditto... check www.summitracing.com and jegs.com... they seem to be the best priced... about 1500 bucks give or take

 

using the part # HLY-77-144CSB-1 at summit I come up with $1699

 

<b>he had...</b>

HAS, dan, 142 i HAVE. the 144 B&M was the one i sold....

<b>cost</b>

The cheapest universal blower weiand sells is about $1599, but you can get 10% from summit to make that cheaper (like I did, cost me $1380 after everything)

B&M isnt the choice for blowers anymore anyways. they make expensive polished blowers...


weiand make satin aluminum blowers without the shine for the right price.

 

The Weiands are arguably built better too. The B&M design uses teflon strips on the rotors to seal the air in the casing. These strips tend to wear out over time causing leakage. The Weiands don't use the teflon strips. Instead they use tighter machining tolerances to prevent the leakage. I've been more than pleased with mine.

have any pics?
exactly how close was the clearance between it and the hood?
how tall of a air filter can you run?
what carb are you using?

 

pics? my website has several.

ive mad eup my mind i am going to get one of those, how much of an increase in power did you get by adding it to your engine was it night and day or was it slightly more powerfull.

also if any one has one for sale that wants to get rid of it give me a shout i am very intrested if i dont by one used i am definatley getting one this summer around june.

 

Well it adds more than just top end horsepower you know. The basic advantage is an instant volumetric efficiency boost, no matter what RPM your at. That means better throttle response, better drivability, and of course, a gob of extra power.

but how much of a gob? That depends on your setup. these blowers dont like big cams, or high RPMs. a small cam for a 350, like the XE262, is more than enough to erk 500+ horsepower, provided you have a decent set of heads.

just remember timing and compression ratio (detonation makers) need to be conservative to allow this boost in VE% to take place without blowing stuff up.
