[QUOTE="Roots-type, post: 16086612, member: 72150"] I'm aware of that, and that's what my post was regarding. The eaton, like the other blowers, will make only a certain amount of useful boost before it's just making heat. The goal is to make the most amount of useful boost the blower is capable of making by turning the blower only as fast as absolutely necessary. Choosing the correct combination is the key. The advantage of going with an upper/lower combination is that with a slightly larger upper (like the 2.9 you've mentioned) combined with a lower (like the 4lb) the system now has more available belt wrap from the larger diameter lower pulley [i]and [/i]larger diameter upper pulley. More belt wrap is what yields the reduced belt slip that OP was praising and allows the blower to be spun more effectively. That's where the additional torque is found. [/QUOTE]
