Man I envy you. Your car and engine are going to be really cool.

I swear, I have got to build one supercharged engine before I get too old to do it. There is nothing to compare with the whine or the intimidation factor of seeing one of these poking through the hood.

You've done a great job.

Blower motors are a lot more than intimidating to look at.  They are also a blast to drive on the street.  Lot's of torque and instant response.  I put over 50,000 miles on my mild 355 Chev with a B&M 250 blower before tearing it down for a refresh this winter.  It is now ready to go back in the '34 as soon as the body and paint are finished.  I urge any of you who are interested to try one.  You don't have to dump any more money in a mild engine with blower than you would a non-blown motor with the same power.
