And I still have to have the third gen showdown with that camaro!
Someone mentioned to me that overly large lower pullies on those cars can cause problems. Have you ever heard of thiat?
Definitely, it's on the to-do list. I plan on dropping it about an inch, but there are a few things on the list first.
Should be a bunch of nice 3rd gens.

Someone was keeping you out of the loop on purpose. 
What I can remember off hand is the FAST, swapping the spool for a posi, and the gear swap (4.10s to 3.73s)...and taking the kit off.

Next on the list is a tune, line lock, new torque arm, and I'm thinking about converting my nitrous kit to a dry setup (basically just for the price of a nozzle) and just running a 75 shot for now.

combination with a larger blower, such as a 3.4L Whipple. The theory is that the big
blower puts a tremendous amount of stress on the snout of the crank. Since the
aftermarket lower pulley doesn't have a supporting "cage" like the stock crank
pulley, the snout of the crank actually gets sheared completely off. It's happened
numerous times, but there are other possible root causes as well. I've never heard
of this problem with little twin screw blowers or with an Eaton. I've been running
a 4lb lower pulley (aftermarket) for years now with no issue.
