With the new power from the head it zips up quickly to the point where the shift begins and it holds that RPM solid and just keeps accelerating; however, I would like the RPMs a bit higher through the shift. I am running 11 gram weights now. If I switched to 10s what kind of difference could I expect?

Its the shape of the faces that is different and this allows the belt to get down into the pulley about 3/4" further than the stock one.

Maybe you should try the other groove on that pulley you got and see what you get?
The "race" groove is supposed to hold you in more midrange power than the stock groove.
I honestly didn't like the 10g sliders as it made it rev higher, but hurt top speed. I really like the 12g sliders on mine, but I do alot of running on flat pavement, so not much off road testing on my part.
I would ask Tom what he thinks you should run with that new found HP.
On a side note, Hey Tom, what did you find while you were digging inside Slestak's head?
