10lb lower?

I have been reading of a 10lb lower, who is running one? Where did you buy it? What kind of boost levels are you seeing?
This seems to be at the limits of our Eatons, what are your thoughts?

custom made, i think asp has them right now.

if you are running a stock block get ready to hear some broken rods flying out of the crank case

JL has been running one on his truck for a while now. I would say it's a piece to the puzzle that has gotten him where he is. Just my .02.

I remember a test that showed at 17psi the Eaton showed it was maxed out.

A certain military man told me today of a new H/D with a 10 lb pulley spilled its guts recently here in Warner Robins. I don't know any details but the eng. blew.

I have been running a 10lb pulley all summer w/ no problems w/ the blower. I have a built motor, which I would recommend for anything about a 6lber. I did see a gain from my 8 to 10lb pulley. I'm sure it's taking the Eaton to the limits, but no issues so far. I ran a 3,4,5,6,and 8 on my 99 for around 20k miles w/ no issues. You can buy them from http://www.johnnylightningperf.com

You mean will you have to put a lift kit on the truck?

How do you people even get a 6#'er on there without re-routing the lines underneath. my 4# is about a quarter inch away if that to hitting the lines..............

I had to bend/relocate my trans lines with only a 5# lower.
