Cooling Holes in Shoulder???

SORRY, I CAN SPELL...

If this does indeed provide extra cooling, then why was this treatment not appled to the inboard should as well as the outboard shoulder?

What have you determined the temperature delta to be with/without the cooling slot feature? How much boost have you seen lost due to slipage that was regained due to the different grooves?

The inboard shoulder is closer to the hot block where the outside is more open to the cooler passing air.

Anti slippage treatment

Can you say what the anti-slippage treatment is? And, is there experience with this treatment that indicates longevity of the treatment and of the belt?

Hi there....

The material used in for the surface treatment is.......Proprietary.
We are sorry that we can't divulge what it is, but after extensive
testing we found no surface flaking, softening or other abnormal surface
problems. Does it wear out the belt prematurely, not really, as the slippage
of the belt is extremely minute.I hope that answered the question.

Isn't it the same stuff they used in the movie "The Core"? I believe they called it unobtainium!

Peter, as long as it works... I don't care what it is!

Lookin' Good Peter!

What style is the clamping to the supercharger shaft? It looks like a taper-bore.

Cheers,
Ryan

Sound

Does the pulley produce any particular sound? While other pulleys also have recessed areas for bolt-heads, I haven't seen any with contours near the rim such as this design uses.

It seems the rim may travel at high enough speeds
[on the order of (3 in dia)*(pi)*(14000 rpm near redline)/(60 sec/min)/(12in/ft)=183ft/sec=125mph],
that it may be possible to design a shape that would produce a signature sound to augment the supercharger whine.

Hi Guys....

Remeber that we are in California and it's still very early (8:30 am)

First the sound, I can't say for sure that it makes a particular sound
so for right now I have to say that it's quiet.

If I can ship to GB no problem, I even have a toll free line in London.
That way you can call me for the cost of a local call # 0207-993-4898.
I am shipping the pulleys so you can have one by middle of next week.
