I'm pretty happy with the torque numbers despite still running the SSV I haven't seen many vortech setups running as much torque as me unless they were using the 2.62 pulley or T-trim blower. Jon was saying every dyno he's seen with the SSV seem to show the power being identical to the stock plenum except for there's a little bump of power increase at the very top by 3-5hp. So I'd tend to agree with everyone that the crawford or a spacer would net some more midrange power, but at this point I'm leaving it until something way better comes along like possibly that cosworth IM

Wait a min..... WhoTF is running the 2.62?!?!? And what PSI is that one at? I remember looking at that one awhile back but thought that it would throw a rod thru my block or crack a piston w/ out building the bottom end... Hmmmm...
I might go ahead and order both and see what happens... Damn you Sentry!!

you might be able to use the 2.87 pulley, but I think most people that do have upgraded their injectors and fuel system - just something to think about anyway
the 2.62 pulley is really aggressive and not really very well tested. At this point with what I'm making with the 2.87 pulley, I don't think I'd do the 2.62. I might consider the 2.7 pulley from that other company that recently came out with some non-slip pulley designs
rabbid is running the 2.62 pulley - I think he had some problems or something and now he's on a built engine.
He said he doesn't have any belt slipping issues. I don't know much else besides that. I don't know what his hp/tq or boost are.
