Re: Blower Question Again

They are the same size. B & M's calls their 420 and everyone else calls their 671. I had a 420 on a 468 and made 625tq.

Run 8-71s. Replaced 250s with 8-71 on mild 509s, kept the same boost, and picked up 4mph and lots of torque.

I would run an 871 also. On a 468 BBC with 8 PSI boost will make 800hp. Blower Shop or BDS are good choices.

I'm runnin' a 454 streched to a 498 with a 420 @ 8pds boost and Merlin heads and my own grind cam at 625 lift and 8:1 static comp. Twin 750 holleys not blower referenced but with power valves. 91 oct fuel. Very happy with the setup in the 800hp range now. Never had a glich and runs like a bat outta hell. Idles all day without loading up, runs, races perfectly. It's a very reliable setup.
