Anyone know about Eaton compressor? Found them on e-Bay. Have really good quality and cfm claims, but I'm a bit weary of them. Their compressors are imported.

Thanks

That's what they use on the latemodel T-Bird Super Coupes,and Pontiac GTP.
Big enough for latemodel 3.8 V6,a smaller pulley on top will give more boost.
Not nearly as bulky as a GMC Roots type blower.

Got a pic ?

I'm talking about shop air compressors. These are unbelievably low priced $279 for a 18 cfm pump.

They are an hour west of me. Friend of mine with a machine shop bought a LARGE one. He's had no problems whatsoever. He used to go thru a generic 6hp/60gal compressor every year. The new eaton is quiet and perfect.

Some good, some bad, I guess.
