need a lil advice

[Fishdizzle]

i have the LFP power pack with a 6# lower ....
its not installed ...

ive been thinking and people have told me ... should i change it out and get a 4# lower and maybe add an upper?

i also wanted to go on the bottle later on ... would it just be better to go with the 4# and upper and then bottle then just 6# and bottle?

just need some input from people out there ...

well im not the right guy to put to0 much input . . . but when i was WAY INTO the lightning scene it was much better to have a #6 . . because the smaller blower pulley just equals more BELT SLIP!!!. . . help him out as well as me guys !!! thanks

 

[Fishdizzle]

thats what im thinking ... cause my original plan was to do a 6# lower and then like 50 shot of juice ... but people have been telling me that i will blow my motor ... but i know with a good tune i should be safe ... correct?

 

[ChrisNelson]

Stick with the lower for now. Make sure you have some TR6's in there too.

 

[Fishdizzle]

so i should just stick with the 6# lower? i should be fine with a good tune

 

[ChrisNelson]

Yup.

 

[FleeMan]

Leave the stock upper. Go with the 6# lower and an idler kit. You can spray the 50 shot with no worries. Just remember to get a good tune. Thats the one thing you should never think twice about.

 

[Fishdizzle]

im planning on getting tuned at RET by greg ... what does an idler kit do exactly? just puts more tention on the belt?

what kindof power should i be making on spray?
500whp/700ishwtq?

 

[FleeMan]

Yeah. Gives you more belt wrap, less slipage, able to maintain the amount of boost you're supposed to have.

I have no clue. Why dont you go the ported blower/6# lower first and then decide if you think you need the nitrous.

with that combination you can forget the nitrous....:fm:

im planning on spraying later on after i get tired of the power and need more hahaha we all know how that works

Just remember that once you go with the 6# pulley on a stock bottom end, your days of doing 130 MPH blasts down the open highway are over. Leave that stuff for the built-motor guys.

 

[Fishdizzle]

why do you say that?

high MPH with a 6# = bad?

 

[RUNVS?]

Too much stress and heat generated at those speeds.
The stock rods and pistons don't like it. :nono:

 

[Fishdizzle]

so keep it under 130mph with a 6# ? hahaha

 

[SVT Knight]

Yeah. Gives you more belt wrap, less slipage, able to maintain the amount of boost you're supposed to have.

+1, if not your killing that poor little eaton.

 

[ChrisNelson]

I had a 6# and 2.8 Upper with a stock eaton for almost 25K. MULTIPLE 130mph blasts. Still on my stock motor.

stock heaton held up fine... i dont think the port liked it to much though...
