I remember you having issues with this car, glad to see its making the power it should be now. What was wrong with it??
Im a procharger guy so it may be different, but what about a Spring loaded tensioner? I have seen guys run a 8-rib on an F1A with it.

8rib 2.75''/7'' pulley., spring tensioner
vortech aftercooler
max power was @ 11 psi
then I changed the aftercooler to a slightly bigger one gained 1-2 psi more and the car made 718rwhp.
after that I changed the camshaft to a solid roller, boost didnt change..made 725rwhp.
found pressure drop across the IC. I removed the aftercooler and with a direct duct to the intake and installed water/meth injection.
Gained 3-4 psi of boost, but NO hp gain.- It might to do with spark plugs gap too big 0.060 though I didnt notice any misfire and the dyno graph was smooth.- "your thoughts and inputs here please".
Fitted 8'' crank pulley- aiming for maximum boost- and this when my belt start to slip and I only seen 8-10 psi and the car made ~630 rwhp.
So, this why I am after a cog setup.
the car hasnt changed since I sold it, was making around 630whp with a forged 355 and stock LT1 heads. 7.8"/3.12" and about 14psi. Once I got the belt tied down tight I had no issues up to 6800rpm. The inlet was very restrictive, I took it off one day and it was making over 18psi at 5500rpm, but I just sold the car instead so I never screwed with it. I posted info and pics in one of your other threads
Doing a cog setup is going to cost at least $1000 but then you will never have to worry again, I had about $450 in my whole 10-rib setup
