Jason, I have one of these on my LS1, LOVE IT!!!!!!!

But, I have a question; do you have a source, or know of anyone making quality pulleys with USA made Timken, or SKF bearings instead of the Sino-junk they all seem to have pressed in nowadays??

These ALWAYS start whining/chirping a few months after install, and still do this even if I clean them out, and repack them with a GREAT quality grease like Red Line.

Any suggestions?

Not ours. We put these on all the cars we build and they run for years without making a peep. When tensioned properly the bearing should last a long time. The belt only requires 25 ft-lbs of tension, which doesn't feel like much. Over-tensioning can cause premature bearing failure.

The tensioner sale has been a great success so we've extended it through the end of February. The coupon codes are still active.

I could make you one and take off the cost of the pulley.

Nice looking stuff there Jason, I might have to buy one.

BUT, this thread belongs in the for sale sections, not here.

Ordered mine in Silver, if you decide to add a midnight blue color between now and the backorder I'd take one in that instead of silver.
