You would think since metco is already in the pulley game it wouldn't take much to make them for aftermarket blowers. I know I'd love a set that all matched. Oh well, first world problems I guess
Exactly!
I never have understood that.
Definitely can’t wait to see what kind of numbers this puts down.

I vote polished! Will RR pulleys mount on the gen4 2.9?

I'm definitely leaning polished, just flows better I think.
Thanks nate! Hows your rebuild coming?

Getting there. I have the short block ready to go. Still need to get the heads worked and then have everything assembled.

Followed in your footsteps and sold off the TVS. I'll be picking up a new 2.9 during the black friday sales.

I polished my 2.3 whipple snout and pulley, loved it. Probably stole it from you, ha. And yes all whipple pulleys for cobras fit all models, this is directly from whipple. So yes they will fit.

Well done sir, I cant give a true comparison yet but I'm sure I made the right move. I'll make sure to let you know so you can grow even more impatient waiting, ha. Good luck with it, hopefully this one comes together for you

Can you post what fittings you needed for the rail set up whenever you get a chance.

I have the fore rails, but want to reconfigure the way my lines are routed.

Looking really good! Can’t wait to see your results. There’s not many of us left but I’m still holding on to my baby 2.3 TVS. I did do my own home brew “secret sauce” to try and help keep up with you big boys alittle.

holy multipost! my phone must have went nuts. ha
if an admin comes in here can you clean this mess up? thanks
No kidding lol
I read through 3 of them and started the 4th before it dawned on me that it was the same post :)
Do you have an eta yet on dyno time? Not rushing you or anything just very anxious to see results as this is the route I’m going to take unless the Gen 5 proves to be worthy.

Thanks
Ken

for rails on each side
on the rear pass side i used one 3/4" rail extender, one 1 1/4" rail extender and a 90
on the rear driver i used one 3/4" rail extender and a 90
the fuel comes in on the front of the pass side rail
the front of the drivers side is capped
These are the best but I think you can get the idea
