    Trilogy blower and u/d FEAD pulleys

    My car currently has Steeda U/D pulleys (from Dennis) and I am going to be installing my Trilogy kit #61 in the spring...any issues with leaving the U/D pulleys in place, or should I restore the originals?

    If the UD set comes with a smaller diam crank pulley, you can leave them in place, but you might want to consider swapping to the next smaller pulley size on the blower to keep the blower rpms up.

    The best thing to do is go back to all the stock pulleys when the Trilogy goes on. The Trilogy kit and what it does with the front accessory drive stuff is extensive and relies on all the stock pulleys to be there, especially the crank and water pump pulley's.


    I may not be at the top (yet) but definitely on top of things.

    What Lidio said. AFTER it's together, then you can play if you want to, but I suspect you won't want to.

    Bob,

    I have asked Lidio to give me an opinion about your question since it relates to the manner in which your car is tuned. I will give you a call in a couple of days, but it sounds like people are already responding to your post.

    Thanks again.

    Jerry

    Congratulations again, RF. It sounds like this will be another self-install, [is that the case?] you won't be disappointed!
