Yes in most cases.
As much as 10+rwhp (but usually less) and a proven tenth off of ET/1mph gain in some cases.

All three of those, on a stock motor with LT's, I'd go with 20-25 rwhp

A crank pully alone would be worth 10, but add the alternater (underdrive) pully as well (which is actually larger diameter) and you're looking at maybe another 5 hp?
