Vortech Superchargers 50mm Cog Drive Upgrade Package - 75/32 Tooth (2010-2015 Camaro SS) 4GE118-020
75/32 Tooth 50mm Cog Drive Conversion for V-7 YSi Gen 5 Camaro SS
The :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0} 50mm Cog Drive Upgrade Package (PN 4GE118-020) is designed for 2010-2015 Chevrolet Camaro SS applications running a V-7 YSi supercharger and pushing beyond the limits of a traditional 10-rib serpentine belt system.
Built specifically for track-prepped and drag racing Gen 5 Camaro builds, this upgrade converts the factory-style serpentine drive to a dedicated 50mm wide cog drive, eliminating belt slip under high boost, high RPM, and aggressive launch conditions.
Why Convert to a 50mm Cog Drive?
As airflow, boost pressure, and traction increase, even the best serpentine systems can struggle with belt slip and inconsistency. A 50mm cog drive uses positive mechanical engagement between the crankshaft and supercharger pulleys, ensuring precise boost control, repeatable performance, and maximum drivetrain reliability.
This setup is ideal for Camaro SS owners running sticky tires, higher boost levels, or aggressive pulley ratios where consistency at the track matters.
75/32 Tooth Pulley Configuration
This package features a 75-tooth crank pulley paired with a 32-tooth supercharger pulley, offering a balanced drive ratio that supports strong boost levels while maintaining excellent belt control for high-power V-7 YSi combinations.
Vortech also offers alternate supercharger pulley options to fine-tune boost output:
- 30-tooth supercharger pulley
- 32-tooth supercharger pulley (included)
- 34-tooth supercharger pulley
Drive System Conversion Overview
This upgrade replaces the existing 10-rib serpentine drive with a purpose-built cog system. The wider 50mm belt and cogged pulley design virtually eliminate belt deflection and slip, even under extreme load, making it the preferred solution for serious drag racing applications.

FAQs
- What is the advantage of the 32-tooth pulley over a 30-tooth?
The 32-tooth pulley slightly reduces supercharger speed compared to a 30-tooth, offering more control for high-RPM or traction-limited setups. - Is this required for all V-7 YSi Camaro builds?
No. It is recommended for high-boost or drag racing applications where serpentine belt slip becomes an issue.
