Pulley on Reman Engine Bigger than old Engine's


Why is the pulley on the old engine smaller and a little different from the pulley on the reman engine?
Is this the power pulley that the previous on had put on?
If it is the power pulley, I want to switch it onto the reman. I took it off and some springs w/ the bolt. Idunno if I want to take the one on the reman off. I might **** something up.
Help please!

Yeah I had noticed that your main drive pulley looked different than it should on the motor that you guys pulled out. Those bolts holding it on have to be quite long if they're actually holding it on, which bothers me a bit with such a high speed spinning mass. If those bolts weren't longer in length than the black pulley assembly, then those aren't what's holding them on ... it could just be holding the two (it should be two) black pulleys together and there could be bolts inside there holding it to the e-shaft. I've never seen main drive pulleys for an FD that look like that.

that pulley in the pic looks like th pettit power pulley, i use to have one. After you take off the allen bolts, it should come off, you may have to wiggle it a little or take a mallet and persuade it to come out. The stock pulley is held in with 10mms. I sold my power pulley and used the stock pulley because i was running without the air pump and i didnt want to use the greddy pulley kit.

Yeah, I think the one on my old engine is the Pettit Power pulley.
So the stock one on the reman should come off w/ the 4 10mm bolts? I just gotta smack it a bit w/ a rubber mallet a bit?
I don't have to mess around w/ big bolt in the middle right?
