This guy is a scammer!! Bought a part and no replies or part. Everyone beware of this puke!!
-
Oh yeah forgot to mention....it’s done !! 106.5” belt
-
The lift is coming off soon
-
I actually am about to take them off and run a 33x15x15 mt pro drag. I have a couple little things to finish then I’ll see what it can do
-
Got the last pulley on ! My belt calculation was about an inch off I didn’t account for the iw pulleys being different than stock diameter to offset the 10% od on the balancer . All pulleys are aligned within .005”!!!!! I think I get to say I’m the very first 8 rib l86!!!!
-
Ok I’m installIng the balancer today and pressing on the water pump pulley to the exact depth. On the two water pumps I have the pulley measures .6 “ from the back of the pulley to the face of the pump mounting /sealing surface. Should fire it up today but I had to order new stretch fit belts for the ac and vacuum pump
-
And the water pump is a pain like the cars....
-
Also the blower pulley I’m using is a 3.00 from weapon x that is designed for an lt4 ctsv with a whipple. Lines up well with the other pulleys , this idler needs spacing away from the whipple idler bracket it rubs against it
-
I will say you will need an adp tool for the alternator, a three jaw balancer puller, and the water pump will use a standard three jaw puller and needs a press for installIng the new pulley. Removing the impeller/shaft/pulley from the housing is the only way to do it but it’s super easy if you notice there are 6 holes in the pulley which make it really easy to get to.
-
I’m doing it right now should be finished tomorrow . I’m supposed to write up some instructions for innovators West so I’ll post them here as well
-
I know I’ve gotten by with adding the 100mm idler to get a smidge more belt wrap in previous builds.
-
I think I added one more larger idler to try after this order but other than that yes. I have the puller for the balancer coming in tomorrow and I’ll knock this out and let you know any troubles. I do have a spare water pump handy I expect that to be the troublesome one. But Chris rose from iw said he didn’t have much trouble getting his off his truck to spec out for the kit. The car pulleys can be a real pain but in the past the trucks have been easier for me. What’s your setup now? Pulley size etc

I wanted to share my experience with this user (Denali62) so somebody else does not end up in the same position I am in.
I purchased this intake on 11/28/17. It was shipped on 12/1/17. I received it on 12/4/17. It arrived in fair to poor condition. The air filter was extremely dirty and many of the pleats were bent. Several of the smaller parts (Seal, hose clamps, screws, coupling, hoses, etc.) were missing. I contacted him on 12/4/17. He said that he probably had the parts and would send them. On 12/5/17 he said he had the parts ready to ship.
Fast forward to 12/11/17. I had not heard from him. I reached out to him again with no response. On 12/15/17 I emailed his personal email address and asked if the parts were shipped. He said yes, but could not provide a tracking number.
On 12/20/17 I texted him to ask him for a full refund or to cover the cost to purchase the parts from AFE.
As it stands now I have not heard from him since 12/15/17 and have not received the parts.
Buyer beware on this user.

No I’m actually waiting on my heads to be gone through and set up I had something in my cam drive let go bent 5 intake valves. I’m doing a fresh valvetrain and vvt delete with Cloyes extreme race ls3 set with z chain. I will take the valvetrain I had in and inspect every part very thoroughly and discard any unviable parts. The rest will get used in my other (spare) engine (dry sleeved 454)
