Default How much Boost with....
Hey guys

I have yet to run my new setup but i was wondering on the the approximate boost number.

I have a Forged A&A 403ci with a T-Trim 8 rib A&A setup

Pulley setup is an Innovators West Custom 8+” Balancer SFI SPEC 18.1

and a 3.33 blower pulley.

I know that my crank pulley is probably the bigget one out there measuring a little more than 8 inches and to me on a 403 I would guess this to hit around 12 -14lbs. Does this sound right? I do have a smaller pulley and a larger one so I can adjust as I want to run this car on pump gas only.

Let me know what ya think

Just put on the 3.33-back off the timing then buzz it up and see how much boost she makes-you have a forged motor-why worry? You did get it form Dave at CDN Perf didn't you? If not-then maybe get the bigger pulley
