Most people fit a larger crankshaft pulley which has the same effect as a smaller supercharger pulley. There is now a smaller supercharger pully available from Code3 (i think).
Jump over to the C32 forum, they have heaps of stuff that'll fit your engine.

That's the opposite - a larger crank pulley set-up. If you want a smaller S/C pulley, Code3Performance is the only game in town.

I highly recommend the Code-3 SC Pulley. That along with the 1/4 mile JerryLet tune, short ram intake, deleted rear cats/resonator, and Nitto Drag Radials, has given me back to back 1/4 mile times of 12.1 @114 mph! This was done several weeks ago at the Orlando SpeedWorld track. And these are the only mods I have done to the car, (without any cooling mods). Besides, the SC pulley is the easiest one to install and seems to be the most reliable of all pulleys. My timesheet is in the link in my signature. Good luck! Neal

Note, I gave code 3 $1500 a month ago, no replies to emails, no product.

I will have a hard time giving them money in the future. Bummer too, because they offer some great stuff.

No way it easier to install then the crank pulley and you can't go back to stock without spend $$$$ for the factory SC "clutch" pulley.

sounds like airplane
I wonder if I could fit a larger crank pulley on my 4.3?

I've been on the phone with a few places recently regarding porting my blower and possibly running a smaller pulley.

The asp is the way to go. No issues and you don't need anything bigger than the 178mm crank pulley. The people with larger pullies will tell you all about the cooling mods they needed to put on. Needswings intake will fit the SLK32, the fastest 32 on the planet is running the intake and asp. The fastest SC pulley still hasn't reached 11's. The 178 has.

I've never hear of anyone running both the smaller supercharger pulley and the over sized 178 mm crank pulley, so what happens if you run both? Why you ask?? I've got both of them on right now and the MAP code coming on every once in awhile, but boy does it want to fly!!
