3.6 to 3.3 belt slip
Will I run into any belt slip issues going from a 3.6 to 3.3 pulley? With my intercooler coming soon I want to step down a notch on the pulley to grab more pounds. It will be a 6 rib.

If you have the correct sized belt I don't see why you would. Look into a reichard racing pulley. They make very good non slip pulleys.

I have nothing constructive to say, and I posted this in the wrong thread. Please, excuse my ignorance.

You don't really run into belt slip until you get in the 2.xx range
