    There are rare occasions I regret living in Virginia. This would be one of those times.

    Look forward to it! Thanks for your help on cam choices Todd, however I did not know uncle sam was gonna hold my sack of two in his hands so tight this year... $7,400 to be precise... Now I have most of what I need to do my swap minus hardware, gaskets, posi port, and cams. Since this is just a toy, I guess I will leave her be for a little while longer as she is more than a blast to drive and in perfect shape anywho. More power, later date.

    I'll probably be bothering you more in the months to come Bud.

    so what do the pulleys actually do im intrested! I have an SCT Tuner with an K&N CAI and some Ford 3.73 Gears and I like the difference with the performance but i know there are plenty of more things i can change to get some more out of my car.

    Pulleys free up to 10hp, the CAI helps, the 3.73's are a waste of money. Stock ratio is 3.55, the slight bump to 3.73 did nothing but drain your wallet of install costs and parts. 4.10's are the way to go and if you have some cash laying around, a 3K or 3500 stall convertor will really make a big difference.

    A small diameter damper slows the RPM at which all the accessories turn which takes less hp. Larger diameter pulleys on the accessories (water pump, alternator) reduce the RPM at which they rotate even further.

    4.10s aren't nearly enough gear for a heavy car with tall tires like a marauder. 4.30s are the absolute minimum if you want your car to be respectable. As for the converter, a 3200-3600 is optimum.
