MstgKillr, its been great on the streets, There is no belt dust after 2 days of driving it around. No issues to speak of, knock on wood. Its strange that I haven't heard from SDCE though, I pm'ed them right after I got back from the track last friday. I wanted to know if they thought it was out of the norm to see 1 psi more than the 15psi I asked them to get me with their set up(they chose the s/c pulley to best achieve 15psi on my set up).

I will be ordering the 3.4 on monday though, that looks to be an awesome pulley impeller speed wise for what I am running.

Kyle, if you lived here we would be racing now buddy. **** I would let you drive my bird....always wanted to see her go down the track from the stands
PM'ed you

Kyle,
I just recieved the blower pulley from ATI on Saturday only problem is I worked a double on Sat. Today is the day, I will be installing the kit shortly. Just online for a quick check of the install directions from SDCE website. Yes I am still on the stock bottom, hopefully it will last a short while. After I get the new house finished the new engine will be on its way.

Well there will be no testing tonight. I ran into a problem. Since I switched to the ATI Superdamper the stock belts don't fit. I have been to the autoparts store twice today. I know the size belts I need now. Tomorrow morning I will get the right size belts and test everything out. One thing I have to say, I don't know how Scott came up with this setup. I am lucky I can figure out how to get the belts on right.

I set the preload to 10 to start with and I ended up with about 17 after the belt was on. The instructions call for 15, you think 17 is too much. I might readjust tomorrow.
