Lightened Crank Pulley
I'm thinking of putting on a lightened 1-piece aluminum crank pulley on when Tom puts my car back together next month so I'm curious what's out there these days.
Any recommendations? Things to avoid? I see lots of range in price, are there important differences in quality or workmanship? If you have a link as to where to buy one too, that would help as it seems hard to track many places down that sell them any more. P.S. No underdrives or undersized pulleys. Just interested in stock diameter. This is more about not having the 2-piece fall apart down the line than anything - any extra hp is just a bonus.

Re: Lightened Crank Pulley
I think Dayle sells them. I could be wrong though.

Re: Lightened Crank Pulley
Yep, he does.
Not sure how it compares to the "name brands" like Perrin, UR, etc, or if it even matters. Looking for opinions?

Re: Lightened Crank Pulley
I just picked up a used Perrin lightweight unit off a member on the board.
Check the classifieds because I'm sure things like this come up every once in a while.

Re: Lightened Crank Pulley
I've had my undersized pulley since 98,purchased from Teage Auto in Ashville,NC.It weighs under a pound and the only drawback is that at idle my voltage drops to a little over 12 volts.

Re: Lightened Crank Pulley

i thought it made an diffrence.... mind you my auto guy said to me it shouldnt do much especially since when the fluid fly wheel is spinning, it would have alot of weigh of the auto fluid in it any way lol

i just got this one, have had no problems with it. had 2 stock pulleys shoot out the front of my car, kinda cool, luckily no damage was done, very worth while to replace before your car becomes a weapon.

**Deleted** Made a reference to undersized, not stock diameter.
