Default Paxton pulley size question

I have a paxton 2200 novi that currenty has the stock pulley.
I am putting in a forged rotating assembly this week and then I want to put a 15 psi pulley on the SC. I can't find the stock size from anyone so I don't know what size I will need t accomplish my goal.

I have measured my pulley and it measures 3.411 O.D. but that doesn't match any of the paxton pulley, and I don't know if I am measuring it in the correct way.

Can anyone clear this up for me.

Also I saw an add for Reichard Racing anti slip SC pulleys? anyone use them?

Thanks

I assume you're having someone tune the car for you if you're upgrading to a forged motor and 15psi. Your tuner would be the best person to ask what size pulley you need. Hope you've got fuel system upgrades as well.

Nope, I'm doing the tuning myself now.
I spent over $1000 at local tuners last year, and though they did good, they can't devote the hours to FINE tuning that you the owner can.
I did all the tuning on my 95 mustang using the Tweecer software and it has done great for me using a procharger on it and NOS. so I figured it was time to buy the software for the SCT Proracer and do the same.

As for fuel upgrades, I am only using the KB Boost a pump.
I have it on the car, but currently at 10 psi of boost it is set at 0. and KB says it will handle 15 psi.

If you're at the level where you feel confident enough to tune your own car, then you have graduated from this forum, lol. I'll be shooting you a PM shortly.
