copy that!! we do what we can
my 2 cents
if you decide to go nuts later on.
Geeking on numbers for boost and football. Pulleys diameters with new air pressure correction for 5.500 feet. I am using 12psi for 5,500'. In the sea level equation below it's 14.7psi.
((14.7+Boost) / 14.7) x (engine liters / 2)) / Supercharger Size liters = Theoretical Pulley Ratio*
4” or 4.000 pulley = 1.56:1 = 6lbs of boost, 4.5lbs at 5,500’
3 ¾” or 3.75 pulley = 1.67:1 = 7lbs boost, 5.8lbs at 5,500’
3 5/8" or 3.625 pulley = 1.72:1 = 8lbs boost, 6.4lbs at 5,500’
3 3/8” or 3.375 pulley = 1.85:1 = 9lbs boost, 8lbs at 5,500’
2 3/4” or 2.75 pulley = 2.27:1 = 14.5lbs boost, 12lbs at 5,500’
I am running numbers cause I got no actual boost. I will calibrate with the actual boost pressure with the 4" pulley, then add to get 6lbs at this altitude. I got 145,000 mile running gear, hope she holds!!!!
