Using an overdrive pulley?

I am curious why I don’t see much discussion about using an overdrive crank pulley to increase boost on the Camaro?

Is anyone doing it?

As I was testing my pulley changes last summer, I kept going to a smaller SC pulley; however when I ran the 75 and especially the 70mm pulley, I saw belt slip.

I was thinking that this next summer I would simply try going to a smaller belt; however, I also noticed that on the Corvette, when people run the Lt4 supercharger, they often swap the crank pulley to an overdrive pulley which results in more boost...but keeps better belt wrap.

What do you think? Anyone mess with changing the lower pulley on the Maggie setup or any of the PD blowers?

Yap. Even 80mm, got the belt slip, so changed the lower pulley to ATI overdrive pulley.

What percentage overdrive and what were the boost results?
