which is a better street cam for blower? 218/226 115 XER
or
224/230 115 XER
I only want to rev to 6500 and make lots of power throughout the rpm range not just up top.
Does the fuel system that comes with the stock Vortech kit provide enough fuel to boost to 12 lbs safely?

Yep my 224/230 is very good drivability and I make good power I don't see 12lbs but I have heads also. I don't know what pulley you are planning on running but I have run the 2.65" for a while now and now I have the 2.5 on and I haven't tunned it yet so I can't tell you what PSI I will see with it I would guess around 8 as I was seeing around 7 before so we will see soon. Besides just remember the boost number is just the LBS of resistance. I am sill moving the same amount of air just more effeiciently.
Looks good Jeff.

I'm running the 2.95" pulley now if I have to I can put the 2.75" on but I don't think it will be necessary but I could be wrong. With the 2.95" pulley I was seeing 9 almost 10lbs at 6,000, now I'm gonna shift a little higher so we'll see.
my goal is to run 12 lbs I estimate the power to be making the same power as in your sig, hopefully a little more !
Will I have to get a smaller belt for the 2.75"?
Which lowering springs are you using, I have a set of BMR's I need to put on my car, its a damn 4 x 4.

ok cool my friend has the 2.75 pulley if I need it along with 50 lb injectors too.
If the car makes good power (550 plus) at 8 lbs I'll be happy but I want to push it as much as I can without maxing out the blower.

I have a Walro with an MSD Boosta pump factory lines and rails. I am makeing more power now and I am starting to have fuel delivery issues acing I know that set up is good for @585 rwhp mark don't know about anything above that as I haven't been back to the dyno for tunning since the last mods.
Well if your running a 2.95" then you just reduced it by.20 with is just a little less than a 1/4 inch. Just see what they have to offer that is smaller than what you have and go from there. I never ran the 2.75" pulley I had a friend run one. You can also call Vortech and ask them what the part number or lenght would be with the 2.75" they sell that pulley so thay should know. I don't know what power I am makeing now for sure, but just say a a few more. I don't know what differences you and I have I have Jet hots and a Corsa TEA 6.0 heads I have a 224/230 cam of my choise of lifts etc...on XER lobes some little stuff maybe. I think the heads are worth about 40hp just guessing though.
