That's some sweet looking pulleys. I didn't add it up, but for a couple hours worth of work, and a few hundred dollars, the entire front half of the motor will look great.

Take lots of pics when you do it.

I like the first one. It'll definitely give the motor some character of its own. I've seen those for sale before but never on a car. I'd say go for it.

If your more for show than go then go for it, it'll look pretty sweet when you're done!

They look great, and I would say go for it. I have a question on why the difference between the deep and shallow water pump pullies?

^^ i'm not sure about the deep and/or shallow pulleys, maybe something to do with how the belts line up on the corvettes vs. fbodys, but what i am most worried about is if these are just made in someones garage or basement. I wanna make sure I dont hurt nuttin on my motor just for a little bling factor. I dont think i would bother with the water pump pullie(s) cuz i plan on getting an electric water pump down the road.
