Do yourself a favor and trade the cog's for an 8 rib setup!!!
The cogs won't blow the motor(if you tune it correctly and setup your fuel system properly) but unless the s-trim is the HD version made for cogs you will kill the bearings in the s-trim pretty quick. With the cog pulleys you also will need to make 100% sure that your blower bracket does not flex and that the blower pulley and crank pulley are perfectly aligned or you will be throwing belts constantly(especially if you have a stick).
There really is no benifit to running cog pulleys unless it's a full race setup with race blower 30psi+ ect...

AS stated it's not a good idea to put cog's on Your s trim unless it's a heavy duty "which is very unlikey" unless You purchased it that way, it will ruin Your bearing's QUICK & there is no real reason to put them on! contact asp pulley's
http://www.aspracing.com/frame.htm and get a 8 rib crank pulley "if You don't already have one" and 2.95 supercharger pulley. I also got the tensioner adjuster off of E bay for about $20 and it will get the belt as tight as You want it!

What's funny? 2 guys told you what to do and all you can say is, "well i bought it like that"
Don't waste people's time if that is how you are going to use good advice. Jeff S is supposed to be one of the brighter guys on the board but he took time out of his day and answered your post, and SmokinLX went out of his way to find you a link, with prices, and all you say is iono?
You are an ass.

Like Jeff says.. sell the cogs and get an 8-rib setup. It just so happens that I have a complete 8 rib setup in my garage if you are interested ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
Also, you will need to upgrade your fuel pump. I would suggest 8-10 PSI on a stock bottom end. You should consider getting a custom tune. The tune will be the difference between a good running car and a blown motor ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
