6.5 lb pulley? Santa wants to know

[crazyspeed]

Ok, so I'm unemployed right now and things are a little tight. If'n Santa is gonna come thru with a Roe blower this year, it's gonna be on a budget.
So...if'n I stick with a 5 lb pulley, I understand no additional mods are needed ( beauty on a budget) ...but,...can I go with a 6.5 lb pulley without all kinds of expense / add ons?
Do I hafta get a radiator and oil cooler and fuel pump voltage boost and wideband o2 gauges and HD halfshafts and loops and on and on?
BTW I live in Buffalo and I can't remember more than three 90 deg days in the last 12 years.

Year matters. Need details before anyone can speculate. Forged pistons? Creampuff?

I think many have simply bolted on a 6.5# system and changed/added nothing else.....but I could be wrong.

You will need high flow cats either way (or no cats) 5 lb for a 2000 and up, 6.5 lb for a 1999 and earlier. You can run more, but those are the safe choices.
Tell santa to hit me up for pricing

D@m, Tony....I shoulda thought of the cats!!

See.....I LOATHE cats...and I mean the four-legged kind.

And one should always budget for a Wide Band O2 sensor. the SC will run with it, but you could be in 'dangerous' mode with the car and have no idea unless you have a WB02.

Thanks, I'm hoping this Henesy exhaust system already has the Cats neutered.
It's so crazy loud I'm thinking there are no Cats and no resonators and no mufflers.....I can't imagine an exhaust being any louder
There may even be A/mkt headers as they sure look like tubing and someone told me 1997's came with cast manifolds
So 1) Roe kit with 6.5 pulley
2) neutered Cats
3) wide band O2 sensor gauge
4) ignition wires
and?
oh..and a few sets of rear tires
