do I need a pulley puller to switch my 4 bolt 3.0 pulley to a 2.9 4 bolt? How hard is it to switch out the pulley?

no you are only removing the pulley from the hub, not the hub from the pulley, since u stated u have a 3" i am assuming you have a stgII 3.065" pulley with blue bolts, you remove those bolts, pop the out, line up the new one, and bolt it on...put your belt back on, and thats all there is to it....trust me i know, i just did this no more than 30 mins ago, swapped from a 3.00" pulley to a 2.8"

thanks man that's what I was hoping to hear! I actually have a 2.99 (76 mm) pulley on there now so I just want to swap it out for the 2.9. Did you retune for the 2.8? I know I won't need to tune for the 2.9 being stage 2 but I'm just lookin for a little more torque

yeah i need a retune bci also went from 42lb injectors to 60's along with the pulley swap, but you shouldnt need a retune on the stgII tune

nope 2.9 should be fine on 42's but more then likely 2.8 will not work... I only know of one person that is running ok on 42s and a 2.8 on lcn but I would not recomend that to anyone
