Cant find a crank pulley to get my Vortech V-1 to work with my LS1 swap.. Help!!
In the process of swapping a LS1 into my 73 Camaro and was originally planning to do it turbocharged but as the parts are adding up it's become clear that it would be much more affordable for me to adapt the brand new Vortech V-1 carbed sbc kit that I acquired a few months ago. Brackets and plumbing are a nonissue I am a fabricator and those are easily build-able and there's plenty of room under the hood to me the only hurdle I'm not sure how to jump is the crank pulley were do I find one that fits? Could I adapt the existing sbc pulley to bolt to the stock LS1 pulley?? Has anyone done this? tips and tricks?? Thanks for the help guys...
Short & sweet:
Where to find or how to build a crank pulley for a LS1 that'll drive my V-1 Vortech Supercharger??1973 Camaro 550hp 406ci, turbo 350 trans manual valve body, nos 250 shot, full cage, narrowed 9" rear, 17" torque thrust IIs all about to change...

If you need a pulley made, contact the guys at March-I've had them build a few custom pieces for me with some builds I put together. 1-888-729-9070
I had them build a pulley for me for use with a GM style serpentine system using custom brackets I designed to place a Moroso vacuum pump in place of where the smog pump used to be and I needed a much smaller pulley mated to the stock crank pulley so I could run the pump at a 4:1 ratio to keep the impellar speed down. They were a big help!"...if at first you don't succeed, try again.
If you still don't succeed, then quit-no sense being a damn fool about it..."

I would call A&A Corvette. They are big Vortech dealers for the Vettes.

ASP will also make custom pulleys. I know people who have had custom 8 rib serpentine setups made for vortech systems so they can probably hook you up.
