I bought the F-3A-R, 123.
Yes I saw it, but I should make more then enough power and I will never pay $2150 for 100-200 more HP.
I can do a lot of better things with that much money.
Plus with my kind of car, it won't help that much.
I'm going to have a sealed input with a hole in the nose.
That thing would probably work better with air being drawn in, not rammed in at 200 mph??

You're dead right on that. the provolute is a design for in engine bay blowers that don't have a duct, so to speak running to the nose. If you had a duct that was 3 inches bigger diameter then the provolute then maybe it would help, but having anything larger then the inlet at the opening, and with the speeds you will be running it would likely not help a bit.
Now if you put one of those on a stock f body d1 setups and just pull the air filter off, I'm sure it would help alot. But, with the blower position you will pick up all the dirt off the ground too with that.. again probably not the best idea.

I spent the W/E with my crew chief and we visited a blown alcohol guys shop.
We learned a lot and saw what it takes.
This guy was pretty big time.
Had 5 blowers sitting there, 4 spare ignition systems, 2 spare injection systems, etc etc.
I probably took 100 photo's and asked 50 ??
This is definitely going to be a learning experience, I hope my fat, lazy *** has the energy to finish the project!!!
