Default anyone have a WPPP kit?

in case you're wondering...that's a water pump pulley pinning kit
to prevent the water pump pulley from being spun off the pump, dancing around under the hood like a pinball machine, then exiting out from under the truck and darting towards the wall...all of this resulting from the ProCharger taking a after 6+ years of service & performance while making the virgin pass down the 1320...on the new motor and tranny...
now the good news!
12.58 @ 98mph...
on a really fumblephruck of a run

really nothing to take pics of other than a beat up water pump pulley...
everything else is fine...appearance wise...
I assume the bearings in the P1SC let go after 152k+ miles

I assume they are rebuilding your P1SC unit and converting it to D1SC? How much does that set you back if you don't mind me asking?

well...
maybe the ProCharger locking up was just a coincidence...
new D1 set-up ripped the pulley off the front of the new water pump yesterday!
on the first pass after belt wrap mod!
http://www.performancetrucks.net/for...lt+wrap+pulley
http://performancetrucks.net/forums/...+belt+slippage
found the pulley...heated it up with a kerosene and a propane heater...slid it back on and drove home...
I guess I'll get it tacked to the shaft tomorrow...
wondering now if I'm getting some twist under boost that may be mis-aligning the belt route that may be contributing to this???

Hmm, I've never seen that happen before. It would be interesting to see what is happening while it is running on a loaded dyno. Safer yet, mount a camera in the engine bay area then make a wide open throttle run. As you mentioned, it may be bracket related. Bob

I have never wondered until now, but do they make a water pump for our motors or cars/trucks that would spin in "reverse"? Like the ford motors have a reverse style water pump and a standard rotation water pump?

seems like that would only let us pick up the pulley off the right side of the track vs the left as we do now

Prolly flex......get it tacked and try again

I guess the truck blower set up uses the same belt for the blower as the accesories like the corvette, or is it dedicated?
