high speed gearbox?
(OP)
Anyone know of a speed increasing gearbox that can transmit at least 10 hp at 16000 rpm output shaft speed? Gear ratio in the neighborhood of 1:5. I was thinking of running a Boston Gear helical gear reducer in reverse, but I called the guys there and this speed I want to run at is far above the rated speed range of these gearboxes.

or just use a high speed motor and inverter.

These thing are prohibitively expensive from Sundyne but there are quite few on the surplus market. In our fiasco we paid a restocking fee on 10 pumps and put 6 on the surplus market.
Also I've seen some Epicyclic Gear Sets that would resolve you problem. My references are currently failing me.
Watch about turning a gear box around as there are some limitations on the rated capacity.

There are some commercial superchargers that use small timing belts. Take a look.

My streetrod runs a little underdrive but I drove it 12k miles last year and the belt looks like new. I would suggest you use hard anodized pulleys.
Here is a start.

Check out these Vortron high pressure air blowers. These run at those sort of speeds and power levels. You might even be able to buy some Vortron spare parts to do your job....
