Any updates with all the pulleys and stuff installed? Sorry, been super busy wiring, running the fuel system, etc. Hoping to fire this thing up in a week or so. I have to pull the radiator and front support, I need to change the lower water pump fitting , so I will take some pics of the front when I remove that. Then you can get a good clear view of everything.

So I shouldn't need to cut the firewall on my 70 Challenger? The Hellcrate is really 800lbs? If I can run a CRT buitl 727 with this. I might have to bite the bullet. Anyone else with real world performance numbers? John Ketron had no issues putting a hellcat in a Cuda. To my knowledge only A and B bodies need the low profile water manifolds. With the water manifolds we designed there is no need to cut any firewall.

Got these sent to me today.....Looks awesome. The only things I would be worried about going this route:
1 Is the water pump enough to keep it cool in 100 degree heat..... 2. Can there be any less pulleys or idlers used to keep it simpler?

We are putting one in my 70 Cuda convertible and we cut the firewall to clear it.

I can't answer your question on the water pump, it is the high flow pump so I hope it will keep cool. But the pulleys are required. You need at least 180° wrap on the super charger and 180° wrap on the balancer. Factory hellcat, demon, and Hellephant all use this number of pulleys. I figured it is the way it has to be, but I kinda always question everything.....Not trying to be negative. Have you done anything else to the engine like cam or injectors? Looks like you went for the ATI damper for +10%.... Do you know what it ended up weighing? I figure my car is currently good for 9.60's, but I have to upgrade the roll bar to a cage...

This is actually a 6.1, Molnar crank and rods, custom Wiseco pistons, Hellephant cam, 1600cc injectors, 96mm direct fit cable driven TB,10% lower, 2.75 upper, running on corn. No idea what it weighs. It should outrun my cage that's all I want.
