    I'm a newbie to blowers...

    I recently purchased a Mooneyham 14-71 Standard Blower. I'm looking for any advice/guidance that I can get...

    My setup:
    1970 Chevelle(Steel Roof & Quarters), 2600lbs race ready, T/S & N/T, 34.5x17's, Methanol MFI, 16V, MSD Grid, shooting for mid 6's.


    My first question is where would be a good place to purchase and have Hi-Helix Rotors installed? Is this Mooneyham Blower too outdated? If this Blower is worth putting my money into, is there anything such as upgrades or whatever that I should consider? I'm looking for 2,000plus flywheel HP.

    I'm building a new motor for this blower, here's my thoughts so far:
    DART Big M 9.8 Iron Block 4.5 Bore - O-Ringed, Callies Magnum 4.250 Crank - Double Keyway - Splayed Caps, JE Blower Pistons, Brodix SR20 heads, undecided on Cam... I am open to any suggestions or guidance.

    Thanks

    You can't "have hi-helix rotors installed" in a standard case. High helix blowers require the 120" pie shaped opening in the bottom to seal the rotors. A standard case will not work.

    They can be [PUT IN] but will not perform like a regular hi helix

    Call JR at RBS superchargers. He might be able to take yours on trade.
