I happen to have a 110v furnace blower and a power inverter that will power it. Would it help (power wise) at all to have it blow fairly high velocity air on to a cone air filter. Just trying to fine some cheap horses and T know extra air is typically a good thing performance wise. The motor im working with is a ford 4.6L Sohc Mod motor.

No, probably not. Extra air is a good thing when it has alot of velocity behind it (ram air) or its under pressure (F/I)

No, this will not do anything whatso ever other than make you look like a fool. You're wanting more airflow? There are a few ways to do this with the 4.6 motors. Switching to a larger MAF (Mass Air Flow sensor) will adjust the amount of air that is allowed to flow into the motor. If you're wanting supercharging, check ebay for cheap superchargers. They may be used, but you can probably find one for cheaper than new. Nitrous oxide is another alternative. The kits are available for a few hundred dollars. They can provide anything from 25-500hp in a shot.
Check out a few car forums like www.reklessracing.net and talk to the members there. They can tell you how to do anything and everything you want to get your vehicle faster, more responsive, and overall more fun to drive.

This one doesnt sound feasibile dude....make some heat sheilds for the air filter if you feel like you have to do something.

Nowhere near enough air flow.

Try a leaf blower instead.
