HVAC QUESTIONS flowhood blower

The filter I ordered doesnt specify resistance. It does however state it can handle 2000 cfm before it deals with any pressure drops. So ideally (unless I'm wrong) I find a way to produce about 2,000cfm and measure the amount of air coming through. Then adjust with a speed control.
I've found a blower that seems sufficient but cant find it for sale... Can you stack/combine blowers to increase cfm? How badly does this increase resistance or change a set up?

I think you only need about 4-500cfm.
How big is your Filter?

Dayton 1xjy2 I think this is the blower that I've been using with that damaged filter and intend to use for the new filter.... It has 4 speeds to help dial it in and specs that seem to be right on the money:
CFM @ 1.200-In. SP 1399 1255 1209 1152 CFM @ 1.250-In. SP 1217 1184 1128 1110
I'm looking for my instruction manual to see if this is really the one I have but I'm pretty sure.
possibly a bit overkill so I also use an external speed controller to lower the flow to right where I like it.

Check the guide in my sig, as long as the blower is overpowered not underpowered you should be able to dial it in with a speed controller like the one I used in my build. My blower is way overpowered

You have no idea how much I appreciate the headache you saved me from. The seller stated I'd need to call the manufacturer in their first reply. The manufacturer didn't respond to my email either. Thank you!!!!
