I know that this is listed for 93-03 mustangs with the novi but I think it would work for us, anyone know for sure. It would be nice because Paxton and ASP wants $90 for the 2.75

It looks like it's a winner.
"Chuck", our site marshall has a 2.75 blower pulley or similiar, and he is part of the one belt crew. He could possibly chime in here with his input.
Good find Jason!
I e-mailed Kelly @ paxton with the part#, I'll post back when I get a response.
That is the pulley I purchased through Paxton.
Email Kelly and see if he will lower the price to match or beat them.
I love the pulley, no belt slip at all, boost comes in earlier and gained 2.5#'s.
Sweet, I am going to get it soon. I allready see 7psi with the F-150 crank pulley, I want some more low end boost and I think that would be the hot ticket.
Hey chuck how hard is that pulley to replace, will a basic pulley puller get the old one off? How about the new pulley how easy is it to put on the shaft?
Its a straight forward job.
Just be careful its a double keyway, dont drop one of the keys when you slide the pulley off the shaft.
Just break the plastic cover off the loosen the bolt on the pulley then loosen the belt. If you loosen the belt first the pulley will just spin when you try to loosen.
Good luck you wont be disappionted.
Thanks Chuck, maybe it'll compensate for my altitude somewhat? LOL,
Never heard back from Kelly.......
A little N2O would do that well, lol :DQuote:

Jason, what is your altitude at? I am at 4,100' and when I put on my 2.75" blower pulley, I was lucky to see just over .5psi. The boost however did come on a lot sooner, and felt a lot better on the low end. It was definately worth it, but those of us at higher altitude know how bad it sucks to get the same amount of boost as those lower than us!
Chris
Yeah, my altittude is 6200' where I live and the closest track is PMI and its 5800' with air like 6k+', lol. Really what I want is more low end boost/ mid range boost. Don't really care too much about peak boost because it is so hard to make boost up here. On my stock engine I do see 6psi at 5600~RPM right now. and If I rev all the way to 6K I see 7PSI on a cool day. If I knew that the altitude was going to be such a huge factor I would have held off for a TT kit.
Just FYI I helped to break that seal and it felt great :)
Ian
The pulley made a difference down low, but once I ditched the 3.55's and threw in my 4.10's is when I saw the huge difference. We usually see air up in the 5-6k range of elevation in the summer when its 105* outside. Get rid of the 3.08's and get some gears. I think you would be a lot happier with how the car runs.
Chris
Yeah, I plan to this winter for sure. Hey ya still got those 3.55's hanging around?
No sorry, sold them when I bought the 4.10's. You can get brand new FMS gears for $139 shipped from Diversified Products last time I saw. (734)459-0130
Chris
Thats a good deal, thanks Chris. How do you like those 4.10's for in town driving? Is your car a daily driver?
I love them for daily driving, just have to get used to shifting a little more. I used to drive the car daily to work and back which is about 40 miles roundtrip on the interstate. Bought my wife an SUV last year and so I am driving her old Cavalier now. When I get 30mpg in that and 15-16 in the Mustang, there is no doubt which one I take to work now. Depending on which track I go to, its still either 45 or 70 miles one way to the track, so with the 4.10's I only do 65-70mph on the interstate now, which still isn't that big of a deal.
Chris
Just ordered my 2.75" pulley total came to $88 and some change for 3 day UPS service.
Im asssuming that this pulley will work for the Cobra correct?
everyone might want to check out my thread about milling down the factory pulley before buying one. i had a guy from work cut mine down for free. had plenty of room to go to 2.75", thats about all you want to cut off though. i'm having some belt slippage problems right now so i really don't know how much boost i gained. hopefully get a belt tmorrow and see what happens.
So is the head unit pulley pressed on or bolted on? I don't want to take my warranty cover off until I have the 2.75" sitting in front of me.
If I would have read this thread earlier, the 2.75" pulley would have made a great Christmas gift for moi!
it is bolted on. it also has 2 keys on the shaft.
Cool. Thanks d00d!
did anybody get a part number from Paxton? Superchargers seems to have a phobia about mailing this military guy one.
WTF is up with that?? Are you at an APO address or something??? Seems pretty crappy to me. Just drop Kelly with Paxton an e-mail & he can hook ya up.....Quote:

I usually contemplate selling it every winter, mostly because it hasn't been out of the garage in a few months. So anyway, the snow was melted off the road and I decided I was going to fire it up and drive come hell or high water. Felt good, like an old shoe. A fast old shoe. Definitely different to drive though. I sold my F-150 and bought a 2K Lincoln LS when I got back from Iraqi Freedom and I got used to driving it so it was a little unfamiliar. Between deployments and winter time, I've only put 900 miles on the stang since August 2002 (no typo, that's 2002).
Back to the original story again, I'm putting the pulley and morpheus pipe on this weekend (winter be willing). I'm hunting around for a Pro-Flow 87mm Bullet mass air but I'm not having any luck finding one (feel free to chime in if you know where the heck I can find one). This bad boy should be breathing good this summer. Can't wait for dry roads!
