Default 8 rib procharger conversion

I just talked to a rep at ATI and they told me they make an 8 rib pulley kit for the trucks. Where can I find 8 rib pulleys for the procharger and the procharger Idler pulley?

The kit from ATI was pretty expensive though, almost $1100. Comes with hub and dampner, power steering, alternator and idler.

What do yall think?

Hmmm, first I have heard of that.

I see 8 rib pullies on ebay all the time. I wonder if you would need to changer the idlers for an 8 rib set up, they already have some extra room on them.

$1100 bones is expensive... but 8-rib parts, in general, are expensive. Reichard Racing makes alot of 8-Rib Procharger pulley's. Ask Procharger if they are using ATI Performance dampners and pulley's. Also moregrip posted up some 8-rib parts awhile back for a Magnuson. https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=361859.

Sure would be cheaper to go to a RR pulley with a Gatorback belt. That should eliminate slip on all but the extreme boost setups.
