              Greg, I'm gonna go with your plan. I'll bring Blue down first so you can have time to work on it at whatever pace your situation allows. Then a few weeks later I'll come down in Casper and trade cars.

                  Edit: maybe mount them on the roof?
                  not to give you any more ideas, but if you do as described, you'll be compounding the output of each leafblower. using that 1psi boost seen from the previous post, and using simple math, with 8 leafblowers "inline", the net result should be not 8psi, but an astounding 24.8psi !!!!

                  now wouldn't that be nice....

                  currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
                  94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

                    One of my old prof's, Cap'n Thermo, says, "PV = nrT", so it'd better have a dang-good intercooler fab'd up to handle the intake charge temperature rise at those 24.8 psi of head-gasket-poppin' boost!!! HA!

                    ... you are gonna add NOS too, right?

                      Knowing the quality work Greg does, he may find himself in the ironic position this year of having a car he built be competing against his own car (Casper maybe, for double irony!) for FOTM and/or FOTY! Wouldn't that be fun! He wins either way!

                      Once I get the turbo/swap, I'll pay some attention to the cosmetics; including a professional repaint probably, back to Smurf Blue or something close to it, so there won't be contrasting paint colors. Plus my 14" AR Estrellas and the Aspire front brake swap (the wheels are both bolt patterns).
