The inside allows for a larger diameter then the small Sci trim. I am not sure about the size difference but I think it is 3" for Sci and 3.25" for Si. Quick search can figure that out but I am just being lazy right now.. lol
Yeah I came across this after a bunch of searching and told the shop to let me know once he cracks it open. It's already packed up and I'm not going to undo 125' of bubble wrap, a whole bag of packing peanuts and one and a half rolls of packing tape lol


The volute opening on mine on the inside at the impeller is 3.02", so I take it 3.00 is probably the sci then the si being a bit wider sits further back and the blades run right to the edge behind the opening of the volute? Just trying to make sure I'm clear in this. There's a ton of bs on the internet, go figure, and not easy to find hard fast information on it. Even from Vortech, or perhaps especially from them. Their old site was a lot better and much more technical information could e readily found.
