Newbie's question
Just bought a 2002 Lightning, and can't leave anything stock...for long. Considering a 4 pound lower pulley, but doesn't that speed up all driven accessories as well as the blower? For LS1's we slow down the accessories for about a 10 hp gain.

Well that makes me feel pretty stupid. The sad thing is that I asked it because of a local shop claiming I should buy their upper pulley so that I wouldn't be speeding up everything else. So much for trusting them. Thanks for the first lesson on my lightning.

Just in case you d/k, you will have to get a properly tuned chip if you install a 4 lb pulley. The stock programming can't supply enough fuel for tha much extra boost and you will be way too lean.
