Charger Pulley too small??
OK.. I may have went overboard with the charger pulley size.. The car had a Vortech V1 SC-Trim with a 3.33" 6 rib. I installed a 2.50" 10 rib kit. The car has not even been on the road with the new pulley set-up. Sooooo Is the 2.50" charger pulley too small for a SC-Trim? Is that spinning the charger beyond it's RPM range? Or should I go with a 2.95" or 3.12" to be safe?
Heres a little more motor info: - Holley SystemMax Intake - Edelbrock 75mm throttle body - Ford 42lbs injectors - Coolingmist Duel Stage Meth/Water Injection - C&L/Vortech 80mm MAF - SVO 1.6 Roller Rockers - Trick Flow Track Heat Camshaft - In tank 255lph Fuel Pump - Smog Pump Delete Pulley - Ford Racing A/C Delete Bracket - E7 CNC Heads Precision C.N.C. Ported 1.90 X 1.60 Forged Stainless Steel Valves Dual Valve Springs (.570 lift) Titanium Retainers - 7 to 10 Degree Wire Lock Receiver Grooves Screw In Studs with Guide Plates - BBK equal length shortie Headers - BBK Offroad X-pipe - Flowmaster American Thunder Catback As far as I know, the block is stock. I don't know about the rods or pistons. A CHP 347ci will be put in this Fall. Thanks, Carl |

Re: Charger Pulley too small??
If you call vortech direct they will give you a formula to find the exact rpm of supercharger. I had it wrote down but seemed to have lost the paper I know on the s trim you have to keep it below 50,000 rpm. I'll look at work to see if its wrote down in my box. vortech # 805-247-0226

Re: Charger Pulley too small??
The 16" rears should work... I'm not too sure about the front runners.. It looks like if I use a spacer.. It will put the wheel outside the fender lip... As it is now... I can't fit a finger between the caliper & the inside of the 17" wheel.
My other option was to use the Prostar XP's 17x8 Front 17x9.5 Rear I just need to find a good 17" slick.. |
