    I thought that color looked familiar...

    You're going to have to be more careful with the paint gun, you got it all over your screen name and vendor badge :grin:

    Sounds nice and healthy.

    I am assuming the smoke was excess oil burning off the headers?

    And that green really looks good on the block.

    Well done, Erik.

    Stock 6.1 balancer is 12% underdriven from a stock 5.7 balancer and since the motor won't be spun past 6200 rpm(stock rpm limit for 6.1) with the 5.7 intake manifold the decision was to use a stock 6.1 balancer.In other words it's a cheap underdrive pulley for a 5.7 based motor that does the job more than adequately;) just wish I had the extra time to have thrown a coat of paint on it.
