So OKAY, just occurred to me that the modification also has a significant
increase in Square inches of inlet size.

The opening on the side of the HVAC box has an effective size 5" X 3.5" or
17.5 Sq inches.

Cutouts for the double centrifugal into 4" X 3.5" X two or 28 square
inches.

I believe that works out to be about a 35% increase, just say'n

____________________________________________________________

FOR GENERAL COMPARISON ........BUT CERTAINLY NOT SCIENTIFIC..........ORDER
OF MAGNITUDE COMPARISON:

SPAL makes a 3 speed single impeller (PN SPAL 064 A42 28 D 12V 3 SPEED
BLOWER) SEE (http://www.spalautomotive.com/eng/products/centrifugal_12S.aspx
)

I think itis comparable to our OEM SINGLE IMPELLER BLOWER.............. IT
IS RATED AT 455 CFM


SPAL INLET is 4 3/4" or 19 SQ INCHES GMC INLET is 4
1/2 " 17.3 SQ INCHES

SPAL OULET IS 5 3/4" X 2 5/8" or 15 SQ INCHES GMC OUTLET IS 5" X 3.5"
OR 17.5 SQ INCHES

SPAL IMPELLER IS 4.8 INCHES DIA GMC IMPELLER IS
5.0 INCHES DIA

SPAL IMPELLER IS 3.9 INCHES WIDTH GMC IMPELLER IS 3.25
INCHES WIDTH

I THINK WE COULD MAKE THE STATEMENT THAT OUR GMC BLOWER EFFECTIVELY
DEVELOPS 450 TO 500 CFM.
THAT SAID THE MCC 15-1561 DOUBLE BLOWER IS RATED AT 650 CFM PER MY CONTACT
AT MCC, JOSH.

THAT IS A 23 % IMPROVEMENT, EH?

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THIS MODIFICATION INCREASES HVAC INLET SIZE BY 35%
AND A 23 % CFM INCREASE........JUST SAY'N

BTW Just found one more source on Bay for the MCC 151561 blower at $89.00
