Underdrive Accessory Pullies for the L
Underdrive Accessory Pullies for the L
Ok, I did a search and also searched the net and could not find anything. Does anybody make an underdrive pulley set for the L? Driving the accessories slower shouldn't affect the supercharger RPM and should free up like 10-15 hp. Even just a smaller crank pulley would help. Anyone?
Are you sure you did a 'search'?

I saw those threads. I guess nobody makes them
Sal had replied to one of the threads
"You can't use underdrives on a Lightning because the crank pulley/balancer has to be smaller to slow everything down, and since the blower pulley attaches to it, there would be no way to attach the blower pulley."
The supercharger pulley bolts directly to the crank pulley. It is a 1:1 ratio so regardless of how large or small the crank pulley is, as long as you keep the 1:1 ratio it shouldn't affect the supercharger pulley.
I can't remember the actual construction of the crank pulley, so maybe there is physically no way to attach the supercharger pulley if the crank pulley is smaller. I don't know.

BTW, the dyno numbers in your sig, are they SAE corrected numbers?
You can under drive your acc.I did you just can not do the crank made my set up.Stan

Slowed the water pump down 50% and the P/S by 25% and no adverse effects on either.
