So what kind of gains will you see with the new pulley and what will be the struggle installing and tuning the car with it you talked about earlier? Is it a tuning thing or making it work with your other modifications you have? Like maybe it's going to make you change other pulleys or air intake or etc.?

I have a fast XFI stand alone to install in the car as the last of all the updates . So the plan as of now after nick and I spoke about it on our long ride to lights out was to add the pulley . Being it has to have a full tune written for it .

At 6200 rpm the blower will only be 2,000 rpm out of the Max blower speed which is nothing . We're guessing it should maybe see another 2-3 psi . I have to just see how it's all gonna fit with the new twin derale fans I picked up for the car . That will maybe happen this week being the weather is supposed to get nicer . I'll get the suspension in as well .

Had the car out yesterday . Ran pretty good but as the days go on whatever is going on in the harness gets worse . Runs a little lean at idle a little rich at cruise . So I'm gonna probably jam out on the suspension tomorrow . Get it aligned next week . Then work on getting the fans in and I may change the water pump to a high flow edelbrock one while I have the rad out to mount the fans . After that I'm gonna nail a weekend down with Nick and gonna get the car up there and get the fast in and tuned .

So far so good on the oil leak that I fixed . There's a little itty bitty drop but nothing like it was . I pulled the front wheels tonight to get ready to do the front suspension upgrades . Just too shot after work to actually start .

Also ditching the 8inch crank pulley idea . Car runs good the the way it is . It's already way fast for a street car . I want to just get it running the way it is on the new ecu and enjoy it .

Tomorrow night or sat I'll do the bumpsteer kit and try to adress some other stuff . Next week I'll have it aligned . Then see where we are at .

Are those single adjustables? I ask because they look different then my Strange adjustables. I am assuming purely cosmetic, but it makes you wonder who manufactures the shocks for them, and if they changed who does.

I think it's just about ready for an alignment

So i got the car aligned. We couldn't pull the camber in enough which is completely odd to me .

Its negative some so it isn't too big of a deal to me considering ive never had an alignment on this car since i own it. The bumpsteer kit is worth every penny especially with these :poo: roads here. I cut the white salt shaker plug off and hardwired it and the car seems to have never ran better.

I had it out at work the other night excited to leave and go for a blast and of course i hit a man hole cover and rip the flange over the ball flare on the mid pipe . Ive fixed it . It still has a slight leak i need to deal with but the car is drive-able. Post some pics of that in a few.

Edit maybe later it's giving me an error .
