What are my options besides a billet pulley? I've found a Dorman 300-130. Says it's for a v6 model. Will it fit? My pump is going bad and I have to replace it. So I want to get rid of the plastc pulley.

You can get a TurnOne pulley, also. They prefer to install it at their facility and physically key it into the pump shaft. So you could send your old pump out to them and they can take care of the rebuild and send it back with the pulley.

^ This is what I did and it been great. They also turned the rebuild around for me in a week. The nice thing about their pulley is that you can remove the pump bolts without having to take the pulley off. They can also do their performance rebuild for you or you can ask them to keep the stock performance.

my oem pump had a metal pulley not plastic

i put a turn one on my car last year, kept the old pump, it's just taking up space. if you want the pulley {pretty sure it's metal} pm me. it's from a 2002 ss, 5.7L.

It feels like metal, looks like metal, and pings like metal, but its plastic. Does it look like this? (plastic will have a solid middle, metal pulleys will have holes in the middle to lessen rotating mass)

I went this pulley, Dorman 300-202. I'll have to get a shorter belt as it's smaller in diameter. Haven't got my pump yet. I'll post an update when I get installed.

Why did you go with a smaller pulley? Aren't you concerned with additional stress on the pump and heat in the fluid from the overdriving effect?

Couldn't find an exact replacement that wasn't $100.

Got everything installed today. Tried three different belts. Got another one coming tomorrow to try.
