We did lean it out in the mid range. Car was hot so made about the same power. My tuner said he never thought he would see the day when a centri blower would put down consistant back to back 1K rwhp runs without any belt slip.

When it comes to belt alignment, most people think a quick laser alignment tool will do the trick. I found that is not the case. The most important alignment is in the tilt access of the head unit to the crank. In my case the top spacers on my blower are approx .125" longer than the bottom spacers. The Flip Drive makes it easier to get the belt alignment perfect. It took me almost 2 weeks to get it perfect.

I am using a 10 Rib system with Green belt for 2 seasons, 10,000 miles of guitar string tension on the belt ripping 8K rpm and it has yet to show any wear or change color.

Who is the Floridian

I have a feeling the info you shared here is going to come in handy.

The Floridian is onebadcad, V-SeriesTech is building him a nasty 414/F1X/LS7 headed beast....

Numbers should be better than 1,250rwhp with e85 and 4.00" blower pulley spinning near max of 72,000.
Lots of little extras like 5" stack and custom snout on F1x to increase flow should get impressive numbers.
