Who here got the Unorthodox Racing Crank Pulley?

I was thinking of getting one for my 87 TII. Notice any difference with this?

I've got one, but right before I was going to install it, I blew the engine up and I haven't rebuilt it yet. I plan on taking it on this winter.

Yo,

Resurrecting from the dead to see if anyone's done this.

http://www.unorthodoxracing.com/ultras.html

Looks like you can pick them up for around $170.

I'm looking for any horsepower I can buy. *grin*

Sounds too good to be true..."Unorthodox Racing lightened underdrive crank pulleys on average can provide gains of 5 to 12 HP and 4 to 8 lbs.-ft. on normally aspirated engines..."

*cough*

I have one too, but I can't comment on the gains because I put it on when I got my fresh engine with the streetport. Looks a lot better than the stock pulley at least.

EDIT: When I installed it though, I still had A/C, P/S, and the A/P. I had already bought the belts in the sizes they're website recommends, but I remember having to run out to the parts store to get a different size for one of the accesories because the belt size they recommended was either too small or too big (can't remember). I think I still have them lying around somewhere.
