Does anybody have an experience with an F1x blower on a 4v? Been planning on going turbo but I hear these things with the gear drive are monsters.
F1x vs turbo
- Thread starter oneboredguy
- Start date
I had an F1A on a big bore stroker. I looked at going turbo, but I already had everything for the blower. It was a fun combo.
I'm building the short block to handle 1500. I had my mind set on a big single but recently saw what an f1x blower is capable of.
What are your plans for the car? As good as the F1 series is a turbo will get you to big power easier.
About 50/50 street and strip. Getting a 4r built for it.
A gear drive f1x would sound nuts coming down the road haha.
But I'm not sure how street friendly compared to a turbo that setup would be

I would go with the turbo. You can turn it down for the street and then set it on kill for the track.
This blower when Banned in X275 a few years back when Rich Bruder was cleaning clocks. And yes some big Mods required to get this blower to perform on a 4V an F1A would be more prudent OR a Precision 76..
Funny you mention the bruder brothers...I went to school with nick bruder and grew up down the street from them.
Rich is at the top of the heap in X275 running 4.30's/160's which is insane thanks to Nick's great tuning,plus having Disomma power.
