Good job grippy! You would make the Corvette brotha's proud with your attention to detail and cleanliness of the project.

Guys, if you haven't read grippy's thread over on another forum... be sure to PM him or me for the link.

Looks great! Is the crank pulley the same as in Vette or truck specific offset?

Mike,
The truck accessory drive is located farther out than the Vette's... what you see in the pics is an Innovators West truck 8-rib balancer. I believe it is 8" as well...

Good job grippy! Polish almost looks like chrome!

There is a post over here from Blueracerc6 about his 427 LPE MP122 setup on an A4 trans. 603.7 RWH 619.8 RWT on 12psi peak. I'm sure this thing idles like stock too due to LPE's mild cam specs they use.
