I'm looking at a 3.25:1 drive ratio, max it'll see is ~9k.

I like my belts like I like my women, desperate. 8)

(Or black and 48" around)

Yeah, dazed, it's two separate belts. Best ratio I could get, without blowing $XXX.xx on a new blower pulley was ~2:1 drive ratio. I wanted this thing spinning, so I made my 2.5 ratio piggyback onto the accessory's built in 1.3. Bumps me up to a 3.75:1. Also makes sure I've got plenty of pulley surface to grab onto.


Thanks, DodgeFreak. Hopefully it'll come together for me this weekend. That tensioner and its mounting are throwing me for a loop though. :?

In all fairness, 116 pages ago all I was doing was showing off my new 62mm turbo and refusal to use metal elbows. :P

Believe me, I've tried. Hineman is a lot more mellow than you'd think.
