Yes I found a calculator someone earlier in the thread linked to a website. Thanks! I’m gonna do some research to try and find out how finicky and exact the pulley size has to be. Appreciate you!

You and everyone else commenting have been really awesome, I read one of the earlier comments and figured out what I have to do to get the right rpm. My next step will be to find the right size pulleys. What’s the play on sizing? Plus or minus 1/2?

So this motor that is 230*15 would be double the hp ( so a little bit more then needed) would work better then my old motor with that new pump I linked earlier...

Would it make a difference running it 115 versus 230? I’m judging by your math I guessing it would half the hp? So either I would need a different pump or a new motor, also why would the motor say 3hp on it if the math says 1.5😅 would you do ma a favour and suggest a new motor

Also stumbled on this old thread, wondering someone could tell me how well this pump from vevor will pair with my motor on my existing air compressor...
