Default Preferred Blowers

Who's blowers have you had the best experience with in the 871 to 1071 range? BDS, Dyers, Littlefield, TBS, B&M, Weiand.... etc...?

I ran the Littlefields on the Scarab. They were a tighter better made blower than the BDS. But I like the Whipple now a lot better

We had TBS 10-71's with zero problems. When we had questions, their tech support is #1.

Ran the Mooninghams, Merc 900's, 2 sets. No problems. Then Blower Shop 14-71's great. Now quadrotor whipples, no comparison. Alot more torque and no problems so far.

I have run them all. If your gonna run a roots. The Blower Shop, Littlefield, and BDS would be my choices. Mooneyeham Also we have run and have had zero problems with any of these companies. If your gonna go screw....Whipple. Depending on what type of horsepower range you are looking for the screw blower would be first for big power levels. I may have some deals coming up on new and slightly used blowers in the size your looking for. Feel free to contact me @ (216) 398-8500 if I can be of any assistance.

I feel that The BlowerShop makes the best roots type.
