Thats also true with root blower engines. The smaller then engine the more boost you need to make up the difference in the cubes BUT without the rest of the parts to go along with more boost it won't be a happy engine.
What tom was trying to say was mumble jumble but it was getting late for him. lol!

I decided to remove my comments to George vs screw up this mans thread.

But keep on posting, it is really funny to read your stuff.
One time you post you can make 20 psi with your supercharger.
In this thread you say. "With my small blower set up (compared to a 12-71 or 14-71) all I can make (boost wise) is 11.5 lbs and I have to spin it almost 30% over (which is a lot for a roots blower of that size) to do that," What happened to the 20 psi number you said your 8-71 blower would make George?

Tom V.

Performerrpm, take 99% of what George says with caution. He is old and can't remember what he posted in the past.
So he just make stuff up. Stick with Charlie66 and some of the other guys.
Tom, I’m sorry that you’re getting confused but you’re wrong on my info. There is only time one of my engines made 20 lbs of boost and it was on a Dyno...it has a smaller camshaft, less flowing heads and smaller tube headers. That was a long time ago that engine broke it had an IA block. This is a different engine, I’ve had this engine quite a while it has a better camshaft, better flowing heads and bigger tube zoomie headers, that all adds up to a better flowing engine and a lot less boost.... but on a plus side more HP!

Thanks for the new information George. So what was the HP number on the dyno when you were at 20 psi of boost George? The engine was telling you something, but happy that you finally figured it out.

It’s been posted before!
This engine I have now has never been on the Dyno only the dragstrip but it doesn’t have to be the ET speaks for themselves!
