Q: PJ Under drive pulleys, etc?

[jrcalvin]

Perhaps this question may be best answered by Dave, the Saleen PJ fact "Guru".

What were the changes made to the various items on the front of the engine relating to pulley sizes/diameters, water pump pulley size, crank pulley diameter, etc, etc for the 2007 PJ versus a Saleen 281 or Ford GT?

I have read that the PJ had "factory underdrive pulleys, different water pump pulley and different crank pulley/balancer" but you cannot believe everything thing you read on the internet....!

I bought my PJ used and I am still trying to determine what were some of the Saleen PJ changes were. My PJ did have a Saleen dealer back east go over the entire motor before I bought it but that was months ago.

The S302 PJ used the same pulley kit as the 2005-08 S281 3-Valve. The kit included a crank, alternator and water pump pulleys. The water pump and alternator pulleys are anodized red. The crank is natural finish and has SALEEN etched on the sides.

I do not know the sizes of each pulley.

The main item to the S302 PJ is the 302 stroker short block. Folklore states Saleen had considered including shorty headers and CNC cylinder heads as part of the package, but both items were nixed. The heads found a home on the 2008-09 S302 Extreme.

Our PJs did receive camshafts by Crane.

The PJ logo cam covers were also nixed for production.
