I have an lb7 tube I am going to try. It really is annoying how slow it is filling with oil. Somebody should be porting the van oil fill tube lol.

What belt is everyone running with dual cp3 and this housing? my original dual cp3 belt is just a bit long. and the "proper" belt i got from PPE, is about 8" too long.
anyone have a part number for the correct belt?
anyone have a part number for the correct belt?
yup, have checked it a bunch and even had someone else route it to make sure i wasnt going crazy. its just as PPE has it on there site.
I run stock oil fill on mine hate the pos van fill how many idlers are you using dustin if your using all 3 (2 factory plus ppe one) that's your problem
Did you try this routing?
From the other thread a 149" belt worked like this
I hadnt tried that way. ill give that a whirl tonight.
From that pic, it almost looks like they used a bigger idler pulley by the tensioner. If it is a tad long, that is probably the case
Hopefully that works and i dont need a larger pulley, (may have to rob (no pun intended) off of maxd out for the weekend) cuz i have a date with our dyno this weekend to break in the new motor.
My 149" belt showed up from amazon. Actually looks better than the original belt in my dual fueler kit
So in order to make the van hose fit on an Lbz, you have to cut it, or am i crazy.
ya, i had to widdle on mine pretty good.
Ok, got my parts, might be a dumb question but why isn't there a spot for the bleeder screw? What are you guys doing to bleed it?
i'm not sure if you have to bleed it. with the new hose you might eliminate the low spot that the truck hose has in it
