Unorthodox pulleys with Pettit under drive pulley

I allready have the Pettit main underdrive pulley, just wondering if I can use the unorthodox accessory set water pump,power steering,alternator pulley which according to there site are same size as stock just lighter. Would there be a problem using the differant pulleys?

I don't see any problem with that, I think a lot of people do it.

However, there is no way the PS pulley is lighter than stock (stock is super-light plastic). The PS pulley is a pain to get off, too. But the Unorthodox Racing (UR) pulley looks cooler.

If you want to remove the air pump and still get good belt contact on the water pump, the stock-sized UR pulleys are not a good choice. The GReddy pulley kit or the SR Motorsports WP + Alternator pulleys will work nicely. I have the UR main pulley with SR WP + alternator pulley and it works great with a Gates K050290 (5-rib 29.0") belt.
