Cog setup??? I thought LS1SPEED sold a cog setup for the ATI kit but when I emailed them a few weeks ago they said they don't sell a cog setup??? Even though their shop car has it. Does anyone make a cog system for the ATI kits?

Re: Cog setup??? how many psi are you looking to make?
I am going with sd-concepts 8 rib with spring tensioner setup.
they claim will spin the p1sc to it's max potential with no slip.
if your looking for 20psi out of a F1 it may not be the best option but if your looking for 12psi out of a D1 then it may be a good way to go?
Just throwing it out there. I have no real world experience with their stuff yet.

Re: Cog setup??? John,
Why wouldn't i want a cog system? I only have a 6 rib setup and i want to run about 10psi. And no i'm not sure what a cog belt cost but it's got to be better than replacing a 6 rib belt every week. Someone on this forum has replaced over 26 belts on his D1SC. And i don't feel like dealing with that headache, i rather do it right from the start.

Re: Cog setup??? Blackbird,
I'm looking into the 8 rib setup as well. I just want to eliminate any slipping problems before i have them. I'm looking to run 10psi, maybe alittle more since i'm going with low compression and all forged internals.

Re: Cog setup??? Why has no one but crazy *** 6 second cars gone to a chain drive setup? I don't see anything other than added weight to add to it? Maybe its more expensive to get the pulleys made for chain? Saw an F2 on a stang with a chain drive, not gonna break that

Re: Cog setup??? Why not just go with a turbo setup?? You won't have to worry about belt breakage or belt slippage.... Also, there isn't any stress on the crank like you have with a supercharger....
Do it right from the start and go with a turbo!!!
You'll be happy you did

Re: Cog setup??? Also if you do some research and talk to some people who have Cog belt driven superchargers you will find out that a Cog setup on a supercharger is NOT really designed for the street so I hope you don't plan on driving your car on the street much if any.........
Re: Cog setup??? 90% of the problems that folks will have with a supercharger will be due to their tensioners not be adequate enough.
Until folks address that they really have not maxed our their setups.
My car has a custom tensioner that we can adjust to 250 ft lbs.

Re: Cog setup??? You guys do not need a cog set up. Im running an F1 with 15 psi and an 8 rib set up and having no problems. I just changed my belt while changing the oil, and I have 2 months and 50 passes on it. Call me 203-415-4609 or pm me and I can help you with your pulley situation.

Re: Cog setup??? Thanks everyone for all your help. I'll try the MMS pulley first and see what happens.
Scott,
If i have too much belt slippage i'll contact you for help. That's a nice setup you have.

Re: Cog setup??? Vortech didn't like a direct cog setup for their blower, but they do like secondary cogs. They like a tiny bit of slip to protect the blower from extreme things that could damage the headunit.
So they said.
