my new pulleys:D!
i picked up these single 2" belt pulleys from a friend on the forum and for two days i've been working on getting the thick layers of paint off and polishing them till they were spotless. After many hours and MULTIPLE coats of paint stripper, these were the results:
without a doubt, the pulleys look 5x's better than the condition i got them in, and 20x's better looking and functional than the OEM pulleys. Not only are the new pulleys more eye catching, they are lighter as well. There is clearly a difference in engine feel/ torque; running a 2" width belt vs an OEM .5" width belt certainly works better. Unfortunately, I was too excited and forgot to take pictures of them installed, but will have them up tomorrow. Not 100% sure who makes these pulleys but from my knowledge, they may be an 'Atkins Pulley Kit'.
Feel free to share your thoughts, i'm interested to see what kind of feedback i'll get
