Innovators West 10% overdrive pulley installed

[RR|Suki]

Good investment so far, blower spins up faster for sure.
I may have gained a little too much boost, we'll see when I start adding fuel.

Either way at the very least it's purdy

Sweet, how did you remove crank bolt? you get a new one or did you replace with ARP. Time for drags? It is fine looking..

Impact takes it off rather easy. Put a new OEM one in. I need to do some tuning for sure, I saw 14psi today, up from 9. Hopefully I'll have it tuned in time for opening day on Sun.

I had a hell of a time getting my crank bolt off my old CV - for some reason all the parts were abnormally hard to get off that (texas) car!...

I never torqued to spec my crank bolt back on when I did UDs - how do you guys keep crank from turning?

That crank balancer reminds me of the stock size fluiddamper offers.. anyway nice overdrive piece!

I made a tool to lock the pully in place that attatched to a long 1/2" breaker bar. PM me if you would like to see a pic or borrow it. ;)

What size is the shiny crank pulley ?

There is a tool for installing the pulley that screws into the crank and holds it, and then you turn the collar to press the pulley on. Pull that bad boy off and impact the new bolt on and the crank won't turn.

It's 10% OD, can't ever remember the stock size though.

Interesting - never knew that existed, got a link or pic of this tool?
I was looking at this one as a replacement upgrade over stock.

Does the Innovate unit have silicone in it?

Here is the tool I bought Babbage. Worked great in combo with the $16 dollar puller I got from Advanced Auto.

The Innovators West dampers are a friction style damper. Inside the damper is a wet friction clutch pack assembly. Spring Loaded intertia rings work in conjuction with clutches to provide the dampening action. There is a small amount of fluid inside that acts as a lubricant as well as dissapates heat. The free floating clutch pack design allows for a broad dampening range in a small package. They are as light or lighter than OEM to reduce rotation weight
