Never a such thing as to much power. That's what they make the skinny pedal for. But.... That's prolly going to be just about enough.

I will try to use the six pack hood but I don’t think it’ll fit under it, I’ll probably run with no hood and a modified hillborn style aluminum scoop,

Some more pictures of the build.
Nice! Old Style Roots Blower... Set up a few back in the day.... Personally I'd run a flat hood cut for clearance with the scoop poking wayyyyy
out....

I do have 2 spare hoods uncut, i have to make a template for the opening, I need to get the engine installed and see what I need to do afterwards.

The blower came off a 671 Detroit diesel, it still had the green paint on it, i converted it to gas use and polished the stock front plate and cover, i also fabricated the idler pulley bracket and polished it.

It’s been keeping me out of trouble but that’s about to change, hehehe.
Forged gears? Or Cast? Cast gears gotta get tossed....
Set it up loose if your gonna drive it much... Or have the rotors stripped with UHMW...

It’s got steel gears, I used a manual for moonyham street blowers and clearances it according to the manual, it spins nice and quiet,
Cool! They aren't hard to work on, just gonna pay attention to a few details... I've actually set them up for Diesels & Industrial applications allot more than cars.. I have a buddy that runs a blown alcohol roadster in nostalgia drags that I've been through the blower on a few times... He wants max boost so it's clearanced on the tight side but it only runs 1/4 mile at a time.... If you ran one like that on a street car once it got up to temperature theres a good chance the rotors would hit & lock...

My brother has a 41 Willy’s pickup with a blown hemi that he drives on the street, it’s been running for 30 years so far, it’s an ex nitro engine detuned for pump gas, it will change your outlook on life!
If there were ever a classic vehicle to have a blower on thats it.... Awesome!!
I had a buddy building a all steel 41 coupe, poured allot of $$$ into it & finally came to the realization he just couldn't afford to play with a Willys anymore... Darn shame, he'd gotten a lot done & it would have been bitchin' but it also probably still wouldn't be done & he's been hotrodding around in a very nice 55 Chevy for probably fifteen years now & he had enough left over to put a big down payment on his house...
