Default Air pump tech question

I need a small air pump for a non automotive application. I've tried getting some specs on air pumps (the smog kind) without success. Does anyone know how many cfm and / or the pressure ratings are for a typical air pump? Also, where might I get one (cheap) if the specs work for me?

Look in an RV catalog; is it 12 volt DC or 120 VAC that you are seeking??
