Just wondering what you guys think of using a gas powered leaf blower for a blower. It will not rob the engine of any horsepower... I think I can get a cheap fuel injection off a Dord Escort. It's all I can afford. If you guys didn't know I don't have alot of money so I do all my own tunning.

I'm not rich either so I drive around the hood and look for blowers people are throwing out. I was trying to design a quad blower setup that will make twice the power of any Whipple and can run on 87 octane. I'm just gonna use an old radiator for an innercooler cause I'm innovative and don't have no money. I don't understand y guys spend big money on parts cause I just get mine outta the trash for free.
