    thought there was a thread on this, but couldn't find it. im looking at a pair of older kobelcos hi helix blowers. trying to id them as a k8 or k9,k11 rotor? any easy way of doing this before I buy them? I know the k8 had some problems, but these have been ran and didn't blow up, so must have been a good one? any ideas?

    Call Darren Meyer at DMPE. He made them all when he worked for Kobelco. The best thing is to get the serial number of the blower and call him.

    K8 rotors are very thin between the Teflon groove and the lightening hole.
