Default WTB items for ECS Novi kit

New to this forum..Hope that putting this thread in here is okay. I'm needing some items to finish up a kit that I just bought.

After tons of reading and still a lots of confusion, I think these are the items that I will need to finish up.

Anyone got any of these items laying around not being used? I'd like to take them off of your hands for ya.

Innovators West balancer (stock LS6 size 6 rib)


Also looking for a better option then the plastic bosch bov that I have now. It's not a pressing thing but still looking.

Shoot me a pm with a price


Updated with what I need left.
Thanks

You've got your ducks in a row.

For the injectors you can send your stock ones off to the Fuel Injector Connection to be enlarged to 60#/hr.

I'd steer clear of the MSD BAP. The KB's seem to be more reliable and less flammable.

I'd go straight to the 10% overdrive IW balancer. You'll need to pin it or the stock balancer as well.

Search the C5 and C6 parts for sale forums for all of this stuff.

Good luck.

We have everything you need in stock and can ship it out today. Just give us a call.


My personal experience is do not go with oversized/drilled injectors, many shops/kits go this route to save money, but I have personally seen them take out more than one engine from them.

You can use your stock balancer. You only need to change it if you are going to a compete 8 rib kit. If you do that, you are going to have to get the power steering and alternator 8 rib pulleys as well. I have the 8 rib for the alternator on my car now, send me yours and I will give you my 8 rib. Yes, Sir. Ditch the bosch and get something loud. Get the tial, and it will fit nicely on the flange that is already welded on that pipe.

If I can stay on the stock balancer and not worry about it splitting then I will. I just read on here that the stock balancer is not the best and that's why I started thinking about the innovators west.

Thanks for the offer but if you say that I can use the stock balancer then no need to switch the pulleys right now.

If you're set on using a IW pulley, just get the 10% OD 8 rib. It'll save you some money and headaches later when you decide to finish off the setup w/ 8 rib pulleys.

I used the stock balancer on my car for quite sometime and had no issues.
