Blower pulley

I'm running a 331 Chrysler hemi in my falcon. I have a 6-71 blower and 4 port Hilborn. This will be a street driven car most of the time. Question is what size pulleys to use?? Plus what pitch to use.
Thanks

with the theme of your car I would run 1/2" pitch, maybe a 36 on top and a 32 on the bottom 11%UD or 35/32 8.6%UD
Not sure of your compression or fuel you would be running

I'm guessing around 8:1 for pistons and run on gas. I was thinking 1/2" pitch.

I'll bet you'll be fine with Paul's recipe. For a little more boost you might consider a MSD boost retarder. Mine allows me to run mid grade gas in my street rod. An 8-71 at 1 to 1 on a 525 BBC.

i think 6% under driven would be a good start

Do all 671 snouts have 1 hole that is off set. Do I have to elongate the hole on the pulley or just run 5 bolts.
