Crank Pully Picture

does anyone have a picture of what the crank pulley should look like? is it just black rubber or does it have groves on it?

Re: Crank Pully Picture

I just installed a light weight crank pulley so I no longer need my original I can send it to you in the mail. Probably wouldn't make it out until Tuesday and then a day later for delivery so Wed. unless I make it to NJ for something else I suppose.

Re: Crank Pully Picture

I had to replace a Crank Pully recently and the local Subaru auto wrecker didn't have one off an SVX. He sold me one from another type of Subaru (Legacy I think) and it was the exact same part. For what it's worth . . .

The OEM pully incorporates a damper... I don't think it's a good thing to get rid of that feature, especially on a boxer engine.

Re: Crank Pully Picture

For what it's worth Perrin Performance has a disclaimer on their website saying that installation of their lightweight aluminum pulley (without rubber damping ring) may adversely affect engine life.

That being said, I have a lightweight pulley on my car. I believe I now get a bit of engine vibration around 2000 RPM that wasn't there before, but it seems to be sporadic. It's been on there for 1.5 years and about 20,000 KM/~12,000 miles.

Exactamundo, thats what it is meant to do. Its the counterweights that are unneeded on a HO design..... harmonic dampers help prevent stress fractures in the crankshaft.
