So pumped, 80gal speedaire 220 compressor. Just thought I'd share.

Good compressor right there! Get it for a good price?

 

[crazyjim]

I got it for a SMOKIN' price. Roughly %10 of what it would cost new from Grainger.

 

[odgreen89on35s]

Hell yea buddy! Well congrats! Lol

 

[souske]

So you are hosting build parties from now on?

Good find!

 

[crazyjim]

You know I won't have a problem with that once I get my 220 setup as we'll as the rest of the shop.

 

[souske]

Just ribbing ya Jim, looks like you have enough air to lift 5-6 XJ's at once

Edit: what is the CFM/min@90psi on that bad oscar?

 

[crazyjim]

I'll tell you once I see it and run the serial. You know about as much as I do at this point. Just too good of a deal to pass on.

 

[tone]

Ill vouch for this pig, its one big heavy son of a bitch! Was loaded into the truck with a crane! LMAO

 

[crazyjim]

Phew... this is one heavy sumbitch... This is how she got loaded:

Thank god my neighbor has a backhoe and was able to lift it out of the bed of my truck and into my shop. Now I just need to wire in some 220

awsome find, congrats. every time i find a killer deal on a large compressor like that, it is 3 phase. and phase converters are too darn expensive to make the deal worth while. but i better do something soon, my old 60 gal sanborn is taking way to long to pump up and the pump is now obsolete. no more parts available. find another killer deal, let me know.

my 3cyl 2 stage 80gal curtis is 17.4cfm @175psi so i suspect it'll be ballpark around there, being the same size.

either way, there's no worrying about having to wait for it to catch up to use air tools anymore.

swap the motor? they make single phase motors in the same frame size as 3 phase. a used motor shouldnt cost you more than 100 or so.
