Numbers will be up as soon as the car is finished. ran into a problem with the pulley today so i had to overnight ship a new one to me. im planning on getting the car on the dyno on saturday if i can get the proper belt.
Sounds good. I am interested in all these guys who are doing FI without building the block to see how the car handles it. I fear for my internals. lol.
Are you going to be able to install the machined pulley after it gets done then, or would that throw off your tune?
it would throw off the tune a little bit and also i would then have to pay another grand to get the car re-tuned. so im not sure whats gonna happen with the pulley. if i get a deal on the retune then i will put the custom pulley on.
Its just sad that you spent that money to get a custom pulley and now you wont get to use it. Ive been contemplating a SC though, so I mean, I guess you could sell it to someone.
i have a very sim setup being installed/tuned at S&R as we speak main diff is im going w the 2.87 pulley on a v2 but im running 550s instead of 650s haha ready to see what kinda power you put down mine wont hit the dyno till mid week! good luck looks great!

yeah i know a little disappointing.

I didnt want to run the 2.87 on the stock block due to reliability issues. frank hill and i dont want to make more then 10psi on the stock internals. the 2.87 will develop 10-12 psi roughly. and the injector size isnt gonna make more power, its just if i decide to go for more power i wont have to change the injectors if it need more fuel.
Not to jack your thread, but do you mean 400tq on DynoJet or 400tq on DynoDynamics? There was a recent member on the forum that pushed his Vortech'd stock motor and it finally gave out. He was pushing approx 440whp/394tq on DynoDynamics.
frank hill knows that psi is just the amount of air not getting into the engine. It doesnt mean anything in terms of reliability.
If you are not making 400wheel torque, your pulley is too big.
True, as long as your not making over like 420wtq then the stock internals are fine. its 420wtq+ where the internals are at their threshold. he has told me multiple times that he doesnt feel comfortable with me making more then 10psi though. frank deffiently knows his stuff though. only guy i trust to work on my car.

I believe that the dyno jet reads exactly 11% high then a dynodynamics. and there is more variables then just the hp and tq measurements that will lead to when the motor is going to blow. it also depends on how hard the car is driven and what not. I heard of a member making 501whp and around 400wtq on stock internals.

Hopefully Frank will give you a break when your able to install the 3.00 928m pulley.
Good luck with your build
in order to get any 928M pulley to work it needs to be machined to fit the vortech crankshaft. a code has to be written for a machine to trim the pulley properly in order for it to fit. it takes a while to be finished.
