VRTrickster 0 Posted November 1, 2006 Just saw this on the ARZ site and was wondering if it was any good, as Ive been put off by comments about premature big end wear when using lightened pulleys? http://corradoteilede.h765700.serverkom ... ngine.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vdubjb 0 Posted November 2, 2006 unlike others, incluidng the one I have on my C, it has an harmonic balancer. I say go for it. It's not much of a power adder, but every kilo counts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 2, 2006 LOL! You have an obsession with chopped and shaped Pork Mr Wales :-) Stock pullies are heavy because they absorb con rod harmonics and also add a secondary flywheel affect, smoothing out any slight imbalance. Everyone that uses one will say "Hasn't happened to me....." so it's up to you mate. I personally can't see the need, I think the cash is better spent on generating more power, rather than freeing off a couple of hp the engine already had to begin with.

VRTrickster 0 Posted November 2, 2006 Yeah I agree, it was just a thought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where this sort of stuff is really good is when you do a complete engine rebuild and get everything dynamically balanced - no need for the extra weight of a standard pulley then as the vibration is gone.
