Intake Pick Up

Hey Guys, I'm Resealing my pick up for the first time. I have the pump out and have removed all the screws on the sides. There are 4 Jackscrews, 1 on each corner, and it appears to have 2 up front under the oil pan, do I need to remove these, cause at this point it's not splitting apart

Blower bench racing

After a "bench racing" / "trying to solve the worlds HP issues" session with a buddy the other day we ran into a question we couldn't answer. And its been driving me crazy so I have to ask the experts.



Sure it takes HP to turn a roots blower. But, what about turning the blower takes HP ? Is it just turning its mass to a given RPM, or does its HP drain increase with boost ? Or both ?

Example #1.

If an 871 is driven 1 to 1 and makes 15lbs of boost on one engine and on another engine still driven 1 to 1 it only makes 5lbs of boost. Is it taking the same amount of HP to turn the blower on both engines ?



Example #2

Two 871 blowers, one basic un stripped blower, and one super ultimate multi stripped tight clearance blower. Basic blower driven so its making 15lbs of boost. Super blower driven slower to build the same boost on the same engine. Are both blowers taking the same HP at the blower snout to turn because there building the same boost ? Or is the super blower taking less HP at the snout because its turning slower ? Not talking about at the crank here, I realize turning the super blower slower would free up some crank HP, talking about at the blower snout.

[Question] Valve springs too much pressure

I removed a Comp 11-000-9 Billet solid roller cam with .772" lift from my BBC blown gas 522 CID engine, then installed a Comp 11-694-8 Non-billet cam with less lift (.652"). Brodix heads have Manley Nextek double springs #221424 with 1.64" OD & nice titanium retainers. They have 250# closed seat pressure and 670# at full lift of my new .652" lift cam. Thus, too much spring pressure for the cam. Comp Cams tech rep said don't go over 500# pressure at full lift (said around 470# is good) with this non-billet cam and should have closed seat pressure around 170#. Problem is; nobody makes a 1.64" OD spring that has the less pressure that I need that I can use these same titanium retainers. (There are actually some poorer quality "No name" 1.64 springs available, but my titaniun retainers won't fit them) The better spring companies all want to sell me new 1.55" OD springs, retainers and locators to fix problem for $600-$700. But that is a lot of money and more hassle. Heads are on the engine in the boat right now. My question is: Can I just remove the inner springs & run the outer spring alone? I tested pressures both closed and open at .652 (full open lift for my new cam) and they are basically both perfect with the outer spring only. Had 170 closed at my 2.00" installed height and 470# open pressure at my cams full .652" lift.
