Find out who built them, that will tell you alot. You can have all the best parts in the world, if its not assembled correctly, they wont last long. Some will go 100+ hrs, others dont, it comes down to how much attention was given when put together, and how knowledgeable the builder is building blower motors.

Re: Blower Motors

its in the boost keep it around 4-5 pounds... run it with a little common since good parts & good engine builder are a must... with the right combo they will live a long time... more than half of all merc engines are forced inducted..

PS don't buy anything that someone just bolted a blower on...
