Trouble is that the 8cfm is likely to be at around 50psi....which is the real limiting factor
is the gauge on the tank a decent indicator of things, even when powering guns etc?

Even a hydrovane wont deliver full volume at full pressure Ken, as good as they are (but require very good miantenance).
