Mines_Better & JapEatr pulley pics
Evan(minesbetter) and i were hanging out and trying to get the puller from the local parts house,
Long story short, we pulled his blower in the parking lot of our buddies @ RPM motorsports in lewisville TX, took us like 10 mins to get the blower off, and like 15 to swap the pulley, our blowers are the same setup as Ford Lightning so it was quick work with the ARP puller,
total cost for Evan- $35 bux and an hour of our time

its a 3.0" pulley from ZZPerformance... as for the gains, im not sure yet, i havent dynoed it(i will very soon). but, the boost went from 12.5 psi up to about 15.5 or 16 psi. it pulls much harder now and the SC is very loud. it starts to pull hard from the BEGINNING of every gear instead of near the MIDDLE.

Nice job...love both of the colors...but, question why is it that your set of wheels (red ss/sc) are lighter than the black SS/SC ? Did you race yet ?

The wheels are the same color. I would say if anything the wheels on the red car look darker. It looks different because of the color of the cars. The darker car will make the wheels look lighter.
