Where are you? Shipping on these is expensive. You are better off to buy from a supplier in your geographic area

That's not a 56. Looks like a 33 or 36

    I am out of Fort Wayne, IN. I really need a root 56 whispair blower for a White magic pro 1200. Nothing more, nothing less. Any information would be great. Thanks....... Oh yeah, also how do you feel about rebuilt blowers? Are they reliable or are you better off buying a new one?

Call Roots and ask them for a distributor near you. They are very protective of their territories.

A rebuilt blower should be almost as good as a new one. Roots has stringent requirements for rebuilds
