    Have a B&U hat with screen wire gasket between blower restraints and blower..was told I should spray prism into blower before each run..will this get past the fine screen on gasket or should I get rid of screen gasket?another thing are you running gaskets between blower..restraint plate and hat or are you using silicone gasket maker?

    No screen, silicone between blower and restraint, the rest is O-ringed. I did try a gasket, but it sucked in.

    Yes, spray PRIZM in before each run. In a Roots blower you can't put in too much PRIZM . According to PSI you need to be careful on how much you spray in because it can gum up or Coke up inside the blower. PSI recommend spraying it in once each race day.

    Would it be good to spray rotors down real good while hat us off blower and let set during off season?

    We spray our rotors with Prism through the screen occasionally...but hit it real well when the hat or blower is off the manifold (spray the rotors from the bottom side of the blower).
