Because once you start modding beyond the basic mods, some tend to worry about mod related issues. Little noises/quirks that use to not bother you suddenly get your attention. I call it the "What If" syndrome. LOL.

So true! When I purchased mine about 10 years ago it was basically stock except for catback and 4lb lower. as soon as i got the mod bug, i began to hear noises :rolleyes:

On the other hand OP, my Kenne Bell 2.6H has been on for a couple years, I just swapped to a 2.80 pully and its still hard to spin free hand, I did notice a little play in mine, maybe time for rebuild?

I recently bought a KB 2.2 for my Cobra that i sent out to KB for a total overhaul front to back just for peace of mind . It got the works , new bearings, seals, gears, snout upgrade, hardware, polish , everything. While finding time to pull my ported Eaton off today which also just recently got an overhaul while getting ported, i noticed that when you spin the pulleys by hand on both in comparison the KB seams much tighter and a little harder to spin quickly when compared to the ported M112. Is this because the rotors on a twin screw are heavier than the rotors on the roots style Eaton? Or maybe because the KB is all redone and just feels tight?

Nothing is rubbing or grinding on the KB or anything like that , it’s very smooth , it’s just you can’t give it a good spin and it keeps spinning free for a second or so . This may be a stupid question but i just thought I’d ask. I’m a worrier by nature lol. You guys think I’m good before i go and install it? Thanks guys

How much did the overhaul cost on the KB 2.2?
