So pretty much pointless changing out oil pump/increasing RPM? |
I prefer the one of Gates

The effectiveness is the same to keep the tension as long as you make sure you get a 3" OD idler.
I see no reason to overrev your engine for SC'd Z especially if your using a self-lubricated head unit. The max RPM of your SC has already set a upper bond. Below that you can simply change the pully setup to get the power you need. Be sure to not go overboard to exceed its compressor efficiency otherwise the heat soak issue will make you beat a dead horse.
What oil pump are you using?
