| The Power Cube | Study ...be sure to remain consistent in your measurements... the pulleys are v-grooved. ![]() I guess its arbitrary though, so just make a value up. I think it is about 5 times greater in diameter so not too far from being around 250mm - 300mm. Both pulleys that you mention come in a number of sizes and i think there must be over 15 or so combinations that you can have. Alternatively wait for a mechano-geek to provide the exact micrometer reading ![]() Cheers, K. ![]() Too many mods to list, PM me if the cat needs killing... |

| The Power Cube | ... so based on a 62mm SCharger pulley the crank pulley is 127.72mm (using a ratio of 2.06) If i run a 15% scharger pulley then it would be 52.7mm and the crank would remain at 127.72mm resulting in a 2.42 ratio. But i run a 1% oversized crank pulley so this would result in a crank pulley of 128.99mm which means my ratio is 2.45 based on a 15% pulley (values rounded up) Or is that all wrong?

Offline | So my ratio is 2.51. Thats interesting ![]() Oh wait... or is it 2.56 as the GTT Crank is +4mm. Has anyone done any testing as to what causes less load on the engine between a +1% crank or just getting a smaller SC pulley? |
