Gilmer Belt drive pulley set

Finaly got around to putting on my christmas present from my wife.They look awsome ,and sound like a damn massive supercharger.
My camera is way to sensitive there not this loud but you get the point.

I've always wondered if there is any real gain or reason to use the glimmer belt pulley set. Noise didn't seem too bad either.

Yep Engine is in the FD, just finished the wiring last weekend. The engine had an extended stay at a local engine builder as well as lots of goodies. Infact the shortblock, intake manifold and Transmission are the only parts that carried over from the FC. Should be on the trailer to the exhaust shop/tuner beginning of next month.
