Only in America! Check out the new issue of Hot Rod magazine. Those rocket scientists/journalists over at HRM, in their never ending quest to find cheap horsepower, bolted a pair of Craftsman leaf blowers to a small block Chevy in an '85 'Vette! Looked almost factory! The twin blowers produced a full 1 pound of boost that netted almost 50 hp on the dyno!
Imagine the possiblities!
Only downside is, you gotta yank the pull cord on each blower before entering the car!
On a side note, that would be considered an illegal modification here in Northern California. In the town just east of me they enacted an ordinance prohibiting the operation of gas powered leaf blowers within city limits (noise pollution)...............It just gets better and better![cl
