I'm not sure my tranny is ready for that much boost haha. Or me ready to spin the Vortech bearings that fast haha. But since I'm swapping out the pulleys anyways, I might go with the 3.15 jackshaft and maybe the 3.0 SC...

Per the Vortech calculator, I'm at 55.6k RPM now (with the serp-side 9lb pulley). Bumping down to the 3.0 while keeping the 3.15 ~stock size jackshaft would put me at ~58.4. Strongly debating stepping down the size since it'll keep me in the limits of the tranny.

If I had the 928 Supervortech upgrade, I'd go 3.47 jackshaft and 2.85 SC, which would spin it ~68k!

Did you just source the longer bolt from Lowe's or similar? Did you increase the SC-side idler?

Thanks again!!
I know I'm over spinning the Vortech bearings, I'll see how long they last. I might buy a spare V3 Si and send it to 928 for the bearing upgrade just in case.

I haven't gotten the bolt yet, my pulley won't ship from Vortech until next week. I have the 3" idler pulley installed.
