    I've got a few 4-71s in stock if anyone is interested. I'll bring one to the HAMB drags so you can look at it first. I'm going to try and have the 6-2 manifold top ready by then also. Contact me off line at 316-393-1105 or gary_r@cox.net.. Gary Roushkolb Superchargers.

    "And the oil gallery feeding the blower had a very tiny restricor(sp) to limit the oil flow in and a large drain to let the oil back..."
    Perfect! I was going to run this from the bypass filter's return line...which gets oil via an 060 restritor. I'm thinking slow dribble in, level set low on the gears by neight of the drain plumbing. I was thinking maybe lower quarter of gears covered, but want to look at lube level height as done in aftermarket sealed blowers to see what they choose for the level.
    My blower looks to be new. I think it just needs to have gears swapped with each other to get drive bolt holes on the left side.

    You can get grinding disks specially for aluminium. The ones I have used are kinda greasy/soapy white ones, and they work really well. ( not the ones in the pics, I can't find the ones I have used at the moment. )

    Looks awesome. Where did you get those pulleys? Does anyone make them now?

    Knew about the retiming, have a couple of ancient magazines with procedure. Looks almost as fun as root canal!

    Kevin, Got pics of how the pruned case mounts? Having trouble visualizing what you're describing...
