Well I was... Then a Saleen Supercharged GT pulled next to me so of course I had to play :burnout:. We where goin from a 30 roll which for me is still 1st gear abut 3200 rpm's.. He honked it off, dumped the clutch, pulled, and when banged her into second and BOOM. I hear a loud pop and then a shredding noise. Lost power steering and gauges said battery not charging. I thought ok i just threw a serpentine belt no big deal. Go to open the hood an theres my Harmonic Balancer sitting off the engine resting on the frame..

I've never really looked into an underdrive pulley...

i have an underdrive crank pulley and an overdrive pulley for my alt. i could tell the difference as soon as started the truck for the first time. no numbers or times to say if it made any difference really.

Well guys, my 4.8 started knocking two weekends ago. So this past weekend I went and bought a new motor and swapped it in. :D
Bought a motor from the local LSX Hot Rod guy, it's a 5.3L Bored out to a 5.7 with an LS6 cam, and the springs to match. Swapped it in and man, even untuned I can feel such a huge difference. I love it. Hoping to get it tuned either tomorrow or Friday. I have a feeling I'm going to need some tires soon. :)
