Get Dayle's as it will be the last one you'll ever need.
If you get OEM size you won't need belts.

on a bit of a side note...
i bought dayles oem size... installed it without a hitch, and recently noticed its wobbling... in fear of it being loose i tried tightening it as much as i could... however it didnt turn at all... how would the aluminum one wobble? seems to get smoother when i yank on the throttle cable a bit... could the bolt have bent some how? or even the pulley? doesnt make sense, but i cant worry 'bout it too much...

perhaps your crank bolt is cross-threaded?

I have the aluminum underdrive and it wobbles ever so slightly too. I wouldn't worry too much for as long as it's not contacting anything or hurting belts.

My underdrive pulley has recently started wobbling for no apparent reason.

n00b on demand, mines oem size(aluminum) and i'm the one that started the wobbling pulley thing, at least in this thread...
maybe its just an aluminum thing, regardless of size?

i can guarantee the wobbling was worse before i got the aluminum pulley though, it shredded 2 belts in a day, and right through my t. belt cover...

I have the OEM-sized one-piece pulley and can't imagine how the part itself could fail, when properly installed. But I suppose stranger things have happened.
