asp pulley, now or later?
 

i just ordered a 233/239 cam,complete valve train, tci 4000 stall,trans cooler,new timing chain and all the gaskets and seals. i then notice a lot of people swing for the pulley at the same time. i also forgot the shift kit. should i go and order these parts now or can i wait. how much hp will the pulley yield and will i have to re-tune it if i do it later?

If you are doing a cam do the pulley now. No gains on power, you'll see about a tenth at the track, just rev's easier.
I did a pulley and a ported TB and I gained 1rwhp.

No, no tuning needed.

Happy modding,
Craig.

BTW- You getting a double roller timing chain? Good insurance to have one.

yes i already got the double roller. i will be getting the pulley soon i just didnt want to do it right away unless it would need a re-tune because of it. should i go ahead and get the gatorback belt when i do it? it seems like a lot of people have problems with the stocker after a pulley. by the way those are some nice numbers you are putting down with your camaro.i like the black wheels to. :D

Thanks about the wheels and numbers! :thumb:

Any belt will be fine, no need for the Gatorback one. Its the size of the belt that matters. I have an ASP pulley on both cars, and I used the belt supplied with the pulley.
The 427 was throwing belts until I bought a K-Tech tensioner and I bought another "plain-jane" belt from Autozone. Its just the correct length that matters.


Peace,
Craig.

do the pulley with the cam swap much easier to do with the radiator and water pump out...
