16v149 Blowers

[Walker1]

I have a pair of Detroit diesel 16v149 (8927895) blowers that I bought in order to get some other blowers that I wanted. I have been told that these would have been on mining equipment, which makes sense due to the size of the engines. These things are bigger than anything I would ever work on. Where would be a good place to find someone who would be looking for blowers of this size?

Thanks,

Walker

The last time I saw a piece of mining equipment with a 16V149 in it was about 25 years ago........

I was going to suggest calling tugboat companies nearby and then noticed you're in Arizona...

The guy I was talking to retired about 20 years ago!

Put them on eBay for a buy it now for a good price and they will go eventually. Figure up the shipping price and 2x though.
