just added powerbond 20% underdrive pulley, makes a good difference to how smooth the motor revs, now time to save for diff gears and tune!

Looks the goods mate, well done.

Was the underdrive pulley hard to fit? Also how the engine feel with the MACE insulators?

hi and thanks all for looking, the mace insulators feel like they don't do bugger all, maybe a little more down low but i couldn't notice it.
The underdrive pulley was easy to fit using the right puller (i had a few to choose from) and makes a good difference to how smooth the car revs (feels a lot smoother and goes harder) but also the car does get a bit warmer when stuck in traffic.
The Exhaust sounds awesome for a six when giving it the boot (nows its burnt in) but when dawdling it can get annoying with a low drone, thinking of switching to a single 2.5 but will wait until after i do the diff swap as this will bring the revs up a bit. Will wait and see
The Corvette servo seems to get rid of the clutch flair between first and second when you put the boot in and just makes it shift firm, well worth the small amount of money!
Thanks again for looking, will add more as i do it
