straight to the 2.87

marcoaferrer · 05-27-2014, 12:35 PM

gotcha. Im trying to gauge the difference between 2.87 and 3.125. Dont know if its worth the trouble in my application.

right on.

I have no idea but if you're ever in va beach, you're more then welcome to drive it.

maybe the next goal could be getting up a dyno chart comparing the different pulleys (similar to how they did with the differnt superchargers)

that sounds like a step in the right direction. Right now Im working on putting together a list of different sites/third party suppliers and rebuilders for vortech blowers. I am also hunting down a pdf with the instructions on rebuilding the blower. I have it somewhere on my comp.

Found some Goodyear Gatorback belt part numbers that will work with our superchargers

4060970 replacement for K060970
4060967 replacement for K060966 (within .1")

These belts seem to do well with superchargers from what I've read on other forums

Awesome I'll update the main post when I can get to a computer

Can someone make up a chart for the v2 as far as what pulley= what rpm and what is the max rpm for the v2 vs the v3. I'm thinking of upgrading to the v2 from my v3

marcoaferrer · 06-01-2014, 12:07 AM

Are you looking to upgrade because your looking for more boost? Or because your going to running the blower at high rpm for an extended period of time?
