who's running a roots blower over driven and what percent over is it, how much boost
 
im spinning my 1071 blowers 2% over driven and making 5lbs of boost. i realize boost is flow related and im running a large duration 720 lift solid roller with 355 cnc cainfield heads on a 598 ci engine 4.530 bore X 4.625 stroke. i was wondering at what precent over driven does a roots blower start to loose its efficiency. how much are you over driving your roots blower and how much boost are you making? what size blower on what size engine? how much hp are you making. thx for any info, rm
