    In the one carb shot it looked like it was pulling fuel from the shooters at high rpm, so its probably way fat at high rpm.

    I went with a 6-71 Mooneyham because I wanted an old looking new blower with no names cast into the case or end plates and they have been around since the 60's. They were able to build me just want I wanted for my blown 392 Hemi, old school looking with all new parts that make's tons of HP!

  7. Exactly why I got my 6-71 from Gene. Plus, why would you not want a blower from a legend!!

    I have a 6V71 that I plan to use some day. It is a base model straight off a diesel motor, but obviously needs some work doing. It'll be fun. I plan V belt drive, not toothed belt.

    What's the lowest setup on a 671 with dual carbs,what's the minimum thickness of carb plate? What about low profile air cleaners?

    No to be picky, but they are not GMC blowers , they are GM blowers. The GM means Gray Marine
     
  15. Depends , my hemi blower manifold is an old weiand piece and the base if the blower is even with top of head bottom of valve cover. I forget the numbers but i have heard it called a typhoon manifold before. That's realky low compared to some.

    Carb plates are generally less than an inch, I have some 7/8" and 3/4 inch. The 7/8 looks better.

    Offy made some adapters that held the carbs low & over the valve covers.

    Air cleaners, you could get a cobra type or style that setts on 2 4s that's pretty low

  23. You have it backwards , the Detroit Co , division of General Motors Company Aka GMC, built the first 6-71 in about 1938.

    They produced them by the thousands during WWII for trucks , tanks , gen sets, and boats.

    The Grey co marinized the 6-71 engines in a variety of configurations for the military , and later for civilian boat use

    No- this is incorrect !

    This is a Weiand street blower we ran about 12 - 13 years ago. Non stripped but run an alky, overdriven, on a very low compression 454 . Still ran 185 mph. Never expected that. Blowers are cool. Never should have sold that piece.
