Re: question about pulley
Id start out with a 3.4 and scan for knock, and if there isn't any then you can go down more until the KR gets uncomfortable.

Re: question about pulley
Will that put me close to 300 horses? Or am I way far from that?

Re: question about pulley
Wheel or crank? A 3.2 set up with your mods will probably touch 300 at the crank. Wheel is a different story.

Re: question about pulley
I agree on the 3.4 and scan from there. For a little reference though, I dyno'd with with a 3.2 (See siggy for other mods, except that the dyno run was before 1.9 rockers) and put down 254hp/353ftlb. at the wheels.

Re: question about pulley
You'll also want to consider the effect the extra power will have on your transmission.
