It's pics of a car I didn't think existed. Now it's time to get a intake for it and scrap the blower and go with a set if twins.

Don't know how the inside is all ate up by the rotor

Sounds like the bearings might have went out.

jdmhatchracer94 · « **Reply #7 on:** February 04, 2015, 10:20:43 PM »

I have a Littlefield Race 6-71 forsale. Made 1800hp with it @120% on a 496

jdmhatchracer94 · « **Reply #9 on:** February 04, 2015, 10:54:05 PM »

Really I though the 671 was basicly a starter blower and the 871 was bigger it has done suposably 1175hp no idea on how much boost or driven %

jdmhatchracer94 · « **Reply #10 on:** February 04, 2015, 11:06:17 PM »

Well where can I get this thing rebuilt? Or a replacement for decent money

Random Hero · « **Reply #11 on:** February 04, 2015, 11:41:38 PM »

A street 6-71 maybe, Our class is limited to a 6-71's. race 6-71's are a whole different animal, we get between 18 and 21 psi @ 120 overdriven. But these motors have some of the best heads you can buy running on meth. also running in the .900'' lift cam

With an average set of heads you will make 1500 with this blower @ 120%

I can re-strip and rebuild the blower. post or send me pictures of the rotors and i can tell you if they are reusable or not.

So what did it chew up?

jdmhatchracer94 · « **Reply #21 on:** February 09, 2015, 03:56:49 PM »

It self looks like rotors hit the sidewalls the second pic isn't good the fucker is deep

Random Hero · « **Reply #22 on:** February 09, 2015, 11:07:54 PM »

i would scotch bright it all, then buff it and run it. its going to be down on power, but to save that would be near the price of a new unit. it will still make power tho, just overdrive it a little extra.

Random Hero · « **Reply #23 on:** February 09, 2015, 11:10:46 PM »

It almost looks like it was either over tightened (they go just a hair more then finger tight, these are maintenance items, always checking and re snugging.) or it had something on the surface when it was installed. shouldnt be that bad tho.

jdmhatchracer94 · « **Reply #24 on:** February 10, 2015, 02:23:11 AM »

I think the belt was over tightened did know it was supposed to be so loose. Fuck it it clean it up and run it. Josh by chance know what grease to use on the rear bearings?

Random Hero · « **Reply #25 on:** February 10, 2015, 09:29:20 PM »

No, I have an unlabeled tub from littlefield.

Random Hero · « **Reply #26 on:** February 10, 2015, 09:30:52 PM »

the belt should have about 1 1/2 of loose flop on the strait side

crxvtec91 · « **Reply #27 on:** February 11, 2015, 12:59:21 PM »

Why not just slap some twins on it?

jdmhatchracer94 · « **Reply #28 on:** February 11, 2015, 11:45:11 PM »

Over 1k just to just a regular Mani on it and the turbo kit

jdmhatchracer94 · « **Reply #29 on:** March 25, 2015, 10:18:59 PM »

Ok so new bearings seal cleaned and polished the housing. Now how do you time the rotors? The end cap bearing pretty much press on the rotors no way to adjust once it's on.
