Iv had a 180 pulley on my car and made 460whp I did headers and 175 and make 470whp with my last tune.I had kleemann lean it out and went a little more aggressive with the file that's on it now.

I didn't get to the dyno or track yet since the car is now stored for the winter.If I had a 1.60 60 I would of seen a very low 11 run!

That's great but dyno numbers mean nothing to anyone but you. Even on the same dyno they can change with different temperatures. Now if you were to compare them to me and my 180 they would be completely un-comparative due to different locations, temperatures, dyno make and model, age, DA, ext. Track numbers are the only true test when it comes to performance. You say you can run low 11's with a better 60' but I can say I can run 10's with a better 60' foot, down hill, negative DA, and a 50mph tail wind. LOL

I have nothing to prove to you,its guys like you why most of use don't post what we do.I could care less what you think about my car and for the record a 175 on the street and track is way more consistent and its coming from someone that ran both.

Post up your low 11 slip when u get a chance too

What record? I think its opinion about pulley size. I never said low 11's btw. And if you wish you can do a little research and find my time slip that was already posted.

btw. I ran a 172, 180, back to 172, and now I am running a 180! I think I know a little bit about experience. Thanks!

You said you were consistent like my 175? Also maybe you should try a 175.

Iv had a 168,172,180 and im very happy with the 175.I did 5 hot laps with no meth and trapped 121+ on all of the slips.

I even posted 4 slips with the time being less than 3 min from run to run,with my 180 setup I would loose 4-6mph on the 3 pull and need to ice it down(see sig)to run her again.
After a 4th pull the car would trap like a stock e55,I would have a decent 1/8 but it would fall on its face for the back half.
My setup I have now is exactly what I wanted,a car I could drive hard and not worry to much about heat soak.don't worry kid once my track opens im sure ill run alot faster.the car is making more power now and its still on the 175

Viper SRT-10, 68 Camaro
Thanks for the welcomes guys! That's good to hear about the consistency of the 175. I will be doing highway pulls 99% of the time with the car, just ****ing with vettes and stuff on the highway. I'll prob take it to the track once or twice but the 68 camaro is my track monster (used to be my daily til I bought the e55 which was a bit of a handful) Fully built forged and stroked LS3 with procharger f1r. When it's configured correctly should run high 8s!

Im glad we have finally figured out that the best pulley is the 175, I will be changing mine out tomorrow.
