Default Pulleys?
I am looking to buy a under drive pulley, any suggestions on which one to get and what are the benefits of a smaller pulley, and should I get anymore pulleys?

ATI is on 90% of dedicated racecars for a reason. They are pricey but others work well on the LS1. Look at weight of the pulley but none will weigh less than ATI or dampen nearly as well + ATI is rebuildable...

10 or so. Better mileage, revs faster. It's not that hard to put on either.
