How much power do an Eaton blower consume?

Hello.

As i wrote in the heading, do anyone know roughly how much hp it takes to turn a blower (Eaton, 142 etc.) for an sbc application?



(tried searching, had no luck... probably operator error..)

thanks.

eatons are a different design than the 144s and 177s... as such they require very little power to turn but the older blowers deffinately take a fair amount...

i don't know exact measurements unfortunately...just comparisons
