Default Which UD pulley?

after searching for awhile I couldnt find an answer

im stuck between 3 pulleys

The slp, powerbond, and March pulley..... has anyone used the summit brand pulley?

if I can get a good price im willing to buy... this will complete full bolt ons for me.... no im not getting a cam anytime soon.... running nitrous.

ANYONE????

Powerbonds on hand ready to go. Individually or in kit form with the right length belts and a new crank bolt (GM or ARP style).

The alt pulley is to make sure the alternator will still spin at a decent click to keep the charging system working well but unless you have an aftermarket stereo system that puts alot of strain on your charging system, then just the crank pulley should not be an issue.

i chose the slp u/d pulley due to the retention walls that eliminate throwing a belt

We do not normally carry the alt pulley on hand. And most aftermarket balancers will have that update.

The Summit pulley is a rebranded powerbond. I am running a March with no problems but it is heavy.

ATI is unquestionably the best. It dampens the best, is the lightest and is rebuildable. The only problem for me was price tag......

I hear good things about them. Just not in my budget. Assuming I pick up 4 hp on the speed Inc pulley I will be paying the same dollar/hp as all the other bolt ons

haha u see me justifying for myself. Don't want this to be a total waste!

They have all been proven. They all work well (if they have some type of dampening material/ring). Just make sure that if you do get any of the pulleys that you use a new GM crank bolt every time (or the ARP one is reusable) and take care in removing and installing the pulley.
