Re: Undrive Pulleys worth it? (jefffxdwg)
pulleys not even worth 2 tenths? I would love to have MTI redo my heads, but not ready for that. Just looking for a few tenths, and my rear is already upgraded, not looking to go steaper with my 3500 stall.

I'd say it's a good mod if your putting heads, cam, and headers in. You get the labor for free. But just to add it, I'd pass.
You might want to think about 1.8 rockers, that will give you a little exptra HP.
It might get you 2 tenths! Tuff call though.

Re: Undrive Pulleys worth it? (Buckmaster)
Ok, thanks. So I'm out of cheap or easy HP now? Was lots of cheap and easy gains out of my L98 :(
BTW, where you get your hood mat painted! Looks great! How much are the ARE stage two heads, and where can I read about it online? I was looking into the MTI stage one at a 95HP gain!! :eek:

Re: Undrive Pulleys worth it? (TexCorvette)
Get NOS and run in the 11's. I put nos on my 2000 C5 at 5 thousand miles. Traded the car in with 60 thousand miles. I went thru a bottle a week. You have to change to NGK plugs and thats it. With a 100 shot the car went 11:88 on the run flats. Never had a problem with the engine. I wouldn't run more than a 100 shot unless you are going to do other modifications. If you keep an eye on the bottle pressure and just use a 100 shot, you'll never have a problem. I now have the "juice" on my 2002. :cheers: :seeya :seeya
