Ive decided not to make any 6 rib setups. It was mike morgans idea and im not going to steal it from him.

Even though i could make these in my sleep with one hand tied behind my pack haning from a tree upside down in the dark.LOL

I will just make the 8 rib setups if anybody still wants them and if not I will just move on to the corvette crowd who dosent care what stuff cost.

Everyone here should appreciate vendors who are willing to produce as low-cost an alternative for us F-Body owners as possible. It IS more lucrative to for them to just cater to crowds that have expensive cars and big money.

Many of us here make JUST enough money to afford or go into debt with a Camaro or Trans Am. When we want to speed it up, it is a real sacrifice to buy all these performance parts that produce real gains. But, we do it.

Personally, I am grateful to people like Mike Morgan, Tom Byrne, Kenny Kiersten, Jon and Rob Raymer (there are others I did not name) that have a business to run, yet empathize with our ilk enough to build whole Turbo systems, R&D motors and products like this pulley and stock up on performance parts to provide a performance alternative for us.

If I weren't SO stretched out, I'd buy the pulley today. And when I go to larger injectors and a fuel system that can handle an increase in boost level, if I can't afford an LS1 Speed cog system, I will definitely do this rather than put the 3.20' pulley back on.

I thought of this bigger crank pulley thing a long time ago. I had Lee at ASP make a crank pulley for me a while back. I got mine around two inches bigger and used a 4.10 blower pulley ,getting 10-11lbs of boost. Seems to be holding good.Very good idea to do. I did order a ATI SuperDamper and the damn thing won't go on! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> TheBeet.

Camarogod,
come on man, that's not the way to look at this situation.
If you can make a product with the same quality as the above product then why not do it. It lines your pockets with extra cash. Competition is what makes this hobby such a fun one. Get the machine fired up, and lets start seeing some pulleys. Don't let a little heat get to you.But you said you were stepping up to the plate so step up.

This hobby will stretch our wallets to the limit and we need all the breaks we can get and guys like Jay(camarogod) with his knowledge and access to the right tools helps us greatly.

I agree with Black LS1 T/A on his last post, I have champange dreams but only a beer budget so guys like you and MMS are equally important to our hobby.
Thanks,
J <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Everyday I check my email thinking, "Maybe today..." And it seems I get the same feeling after every time I check. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

I don't want to waste their time if it's out of my league right now.

PM me on what the cost is: michael@mlbuie.com

Thanks, man! I'm really looking forward to seeing what your machine does!
