8 rib conversion for 4.6L

[cyac5l8trfcar]

I've got a '01 cobra with a blower. i plan on running some more boost but i'm not to keen on the 6 rib belt. anyone know of anywhere i can get a 8 rib conversion? Procharger said they make the pulley for the blower for that set up so that's covered and they know how long the belt has to be. I've heard that the stock pullies off a lightning will work, any one got all of 'em for sale?

It's very undescriptive of what it consist of, and i'm curious how the a/c compressor still works. The steeda one is about 500+ but idk if it's worth that much dough.

ATI procharger. they make one too but i'm not really wanting to spend a ton of cash right now.

I had a thread from Corral posted by a guy that did an 8 rib conversion pretty cheap. He used Navigator 8 rib pulleys for the crank, W/P, Alt, A/C, etc. Then just shimmed out the blower the correct amount. You might give a good search over there.

Innovators West and another company make 8 rib SFI pulleys that are actually larger in size for more boost an belt wrap also.

To switch the A/C compressor over to 8 rib you actually take the clutch assy apart and replace the 6 rib pulley with an 8 rib one and then put it all back together.

I think Kenne Bell offers one too.
