I got a fbo STOCK BLOCK gt500 with cams 10% lower on E85 making 830rwhp. I bought a Gen3r ( going to to port it ) at a deal I couldn’t pass up it has a 2.5 upper already and need to know what pulley to put on it to keep it around 830-850

I would recommend speaking with your tuner and VMP Directly. Random internet advice with no real background on your car is not the answer you want.

And welcome to the VMP crew. You’re gonna love that blower.

With a 10% lower you're probably going to have a run a 3.0 pulley or a 2.8, but you're going to be over 850whp easily. I'm assuming you currently have the stock Trinity TVS? Who's your tuner?

damn how long you been running it like that? I have been debating on throwing a lower and going on corn but was scared to go boom.

I also agree and would hit the tuner up.

Probably use the 2.8 and tune it with timing.
It may actually help as it’s the higher boost and torque at lower RPMs that hurt the rods.
2 combos both 850rwhp:
(1) stock cams, maxed timing 2.3
(2) aftermarket cams, mild timing 2.65
I’d bet on combo 2 lasting longer.
You’re already helping by shifting at 6500rpm, so if you can keep that restraint, good luck!
