I think there are about 4 of us who run blowers on our cars now, possibly others that I'm not aware of. Perry, Bill, me, and it seems there's someone else I'm missing. Anyway, if you're running a blower please let us know. We are sure to have some common interests.

Now if there is someone who would like to join our ranks, I'd like to let you know that there is an opportunity. Chris Sanders is starting to get a little desperate to sell his equipment. (He's got maybe 3 years left due to cancer) Check out the classifieds to see what he's got, you could be up and running in pretty short order. I know he's tried to sell the parts he got from D&D back to Mark and we all know what kind of a discount it'll take to make that deal. He approached me to buy back the blower and I'd love to except I just busted the bank buying wheels. So what I'm saying is, if you have a few bucks you can set aside for it, you can do this for considerably less than you'd pay to put a blower on a SBC for instance, and get forged pistons in the bargain. It's certainly worth thinking about.

Chris has the whole works listed on ebay this week for $1500. Can't beat that price.
