I feel your pain bro. I blew my motor last yr with the 2.87 pulley also.
I know this might be off topic but which would be faster, the tt vs the vortech T- trim if both were pushing around the same hp of 500whp?
I would think the TT setup would win but the more I think about it I'm not too sure. The TT would probably have traction issues compared to the vortech setup from a dig and their top end would drop close to around 450whp when they reach redline. The vortech on the other hand starts to shine bc it's able to produce it's peak hp on the top end. so will this be an even match or no way? What do u guys think? If I'm wrong, how much whp does a SC have to make over a TT to be able to beat it?

Goodluck Nexx. I loved my Vortech kit so much and I hope I wont be dissapointed going to TT. The only reason I an[m is because Im building the motor and it would be so much easier instaliing with the motor aout of the car as I will be doing alot of the work myself. I wanted to do the T Trim with the built motor but I was talked into going with twins.

You can hit 500whp on a serpentine belt with the right modifications and I am not talking about my custom setup.
I say be patient and wait for some people to finish their builds before you make your choice. There could be some very impressive results once people have finished their builds that will help direct your choice.
