Top Swap vs SSm90

when you say exhaust do you mean headers... or the exhaust after the Y??

If not, maybe you should consider a set of headers or if money doesn't allow grab a PLOG and Crossover... not sure how much the PEM will do but I guess if it comes in a package deal it can't hurt.

I wish! A buddy made that for me. I will say this, though; it would be FAR easier to make something like that for a W-body or a 2000+ H-body, because you don't have that funky torque axis mount bracket to contend with like a pre-2000 H-body does. In other words, you would not necessarily have to do as much shaping, you could probably just drill holes in a rectangular flat bar, and use a larger bolt (1/2" IIRC) and stack of washers in place of the idler pulley standoff.

(I had that thing made because it moves the idler over and gives me better belt wrap on the S/C pulley than the ZZP ssm90 idler pulley method, which is similar to what Chico posted)

I agree with all that's been said so far re: starting pulley size for a topswap. With PLOG, DP, a mild L67 cam, very mildly ported L67 heads, and DHP PowrTuner, (but crappy, oxygenated, 91-octane California gas) I'm feeling safe only down to a 4.0" pulley. I'm hoping my next mod (IC) will get me down to the 3.5-3.6" pulley range.

so should I get my blower and manifold ported and polished or will I be ok without it?

It's not required, but it'd be a good time to do it if you ever want to get an intercooler later. As long as you know someone who can do you a good in car tune you should be fine.
 


I'd actually be the one tuning his car. I will need some help and I've explained this to him.

Anyone care to assist us while doing it?

Thanks
