Default Re: Mystery Blower

Not of any use for a Ford flathead. The blower is from a modern production car possibly a V-6 since its small compared to what's used all newer V-8 engines.

This type of modern screw blower is what's know as dry this means no gas gets between the rotors only air. That odd looking opening in the rear of the case is where the air enters. The gasoline enters below the blower into the intake manifold by way of electric injectors the air from the blower rotors and the gas then combine to feed the engine. This arrangement is what's used on every supercharged production car on the market today and for a few decades now.
