Yes sir...

I was over at Moon's this weekend with Greg, and I saw some really awesome work. Moons working on a kit with a bigger blower. And from the looks of it; its going to be awesome. It will be more powerful, run more efficiently, and be more asthetically pleasing to the eye. Something definitely to look out for.


Btw slvrstreak thanks for the seal and spacer. It got there the same day we started working on the car. Talk about good timing.


Also does anyone have 1. SC main pulley 2. Low PSI crank pulley that they can lend me, so I can have replicas made? Pettit no longer has them in stock and it seems Cam Jr is having trouble finding the schematics.

 

that's great Omar...glad I could help
the SC pulleys are a common size...can't remember what sizes exactly but, I ordered a few from advance auto and may even have an extra

 

Yo def saved me. The shaft spacer I had was the wrong size fml... And please once again if you can help with the pulleys it would be nothing short of amazing.

 

I'll check when I go work on the car tomorrow
prepping it to go to its new home

 

Cool, thanks! and damn so your selling quick huh. This crew is getting smaller by the day

 

 

oh lol.... I have the belt lolol.... I need the actual Pulleys. The Main SC pulley and the Crank pulley.


Because the Main SC pulley I have is a lot smaller than the one that made it to production. And my Crank one has welds, so its un balanced.

I want to have replicas made of the originals.

 

oh I see
reading comp fail lol
I don't have an extra pulley
if I swap to the high boost setup in the near future I will let you know though

 

nyc pm keck03 iirc he has different pullies for his car. ill send him a txt too

 

yea he has the high boost setup but, I think he bought it that way
not sure if he has the extra low boost pulley but, it's worth a shot

 

i just talked to mike. hes running the 11psi pulley but he does have the 8 also. he needs to replace his belts this sunday tho. his car has been in his garage for the past week.

 

sweet that would be perfect
good call sir

 

Levi! This car is fast;-)

 

For those of you that don't know, Marcos is the owner of my old car
And I am the new owner of olddraggers car

 

And enjoying every minute of it.

 

It was time to pass the torch guys. Levi has righteous plans for my car ( now HIS car!)
Putting cage in and proper seats/safety equipment
loosing 200-300 lbs
lightweight battery
bigger injectors
I am trying to talk him into getting the S2 differential--I dont think he realizes how big of a performance boost that would give him
He is going to need a bigger oil cooler too
I cant wait to take a ride in it when it is finished. It is going to be one to watch--that is for sure.

 

This is nuts!!! Awesome! Congrats.

 

just PM'ed him.

 

So did some digging up and found the SC Pulley sizes for future references. So if somebody does a search hopefully this post pops up.

You would think common knowledge. But for SC noobs not so much. Well for the Main SC pulley not so much common knowledge. Whatever though It might help someone else later on.

 

Sup guys.... Hope you all had an amazing memorial Day weekend. So question:

Stock Pettit SC pulley sizes are:

Blower Pulley= 3.25in
Crank Pulley= 4.5in (low boost)


My Pulley's are:

Blower= ***2.95in
Crank pulley= 4.5in (low boost)






How does this affect boost?

 

The smaller the top pulley or the larger the "crank" pulley, the more boost,to an extent. Is that what you're asking ?

 

Yes, pretty much. So having this smaller blower pulley is going to have me running higher boost. That is what I was trying to figure out. The Pettit high boost crank pulley is 5 inches. It's .50 inches bigger than the low boost pulley (4.50in) and people with that setup are seeing 12-13psi...
So now with my set up; my top pulley is .30 inches smaller than the original. Does anybody have a idea of how much boost I may see in comparison with the Pettit High boost setup?

 

I would guess maybe 1-2psi less than the highboost setup.

 

Cool. Seems to be very difficult to get pulleys for this kit. So I think I'm going to upgrade to larger injectors, upgrade my ignition and run the higher boost. All with in a week. Still looking to replace my welded up low boost crank pulley for another one that made it to production.

 

You'll have it running in no time and won't be disappointed.
