I wouldn't stress about it. Chances of blowing up an L67 on a 3.5 pulley are pretty much slim to none.

Just speaking from experience, had I not been scanning when I had those mods, 10* of KR woulda had me toast. It takes some cars a cam to run a 3.4 pulley, OP just be sure to scan...

Been doing the fast car thing for a long time. I've never seen an L67 blow up with a 3.5 pulley. Boosted L36? Maybe...but the lower compression motor, eh, not going to happen.

Then you should be fairly close depending on how your tires grip at the track.
Wouldn't be too bad of numbers

Haha, a guy near me is running a 3.2pulley on alky injection and a downpipe, with no KR. He's going to a 2.8 now. You would be surprised what you can get by with.

agree with shawn, he knows his stuff i know this guy personally. its all in the tune man, if its tuned right you are more than safe with a 3.5 on a l67 block
