I didn't pull the blower off the upper manifold, I really only wanted to see how big the intercooler core was so i could compare it to the 112 Radixs (about 30% larger BTW). I would guess it's something like that.

Assuming a 3" pulley out front....will i be okay with a 6 rib belt at 8-10lbs of boost? The 8.1L cranks have a larger snout and would need a custom 8 rib pulley to make it work ($$!!). Not sure where the cut off is as far as boost is concerned when you need to upgrade to the 8 rib.
