There is no way on God's green earth that anyone will deliver a blower for a

Anyone who anticipates that it can happen is dreaming. The blower alone is
more expensive than that without considering plumbing, R&D, control pieces
and profit incentive. Be prepared to pay $2500 to 3 Grand for something
like this.
