Hi,

It was recommended I post here from another forum. I've been looking for a Kellogg American for awhile and now I'm looking for a parts list and information such as SCFM.

I'm on my 4th Kobalt compressor in 4 years. To their credit Lowe's keeps replacing them for free. I've been keeping my eye out for something that will fit in with my OWWM better.

I'm happy with the 35 gallon tank size but I'm a little concerned that the pump itself is too small. It is a model 201 which must be pretty old because I can't find any info about it like more common 3XX series. The numbers 11/21 are cast into the side of the pump. However, the tank was made in 1972. Both the mounting frame and the pump have a model of 201 although different serial numbers.

So in short I'm trying to figure out when it was made, and more importantly the SCFM. I still need to do some plumbing before it fire it up yet.

Here are the pictures:

Given that the tank was made in '72, I'll bet the number 373 that follows the model number is the date of mfg, March 1973. The first 3 is even spaced out slightly from the 73.

That makes perfect sense, I didn't think of that before. I just wish I could find an old catalog that would give the SCFM.
