Underdrive pulley
its a good underdrive pulley alot of people on here have that pulley, i am gonna get the same one here soon. ASP is the pulley that seems to throw belts for some guys, and its easy to install just get a three point pulley puller and a new crank bolt and you will be set. there are tons of writeups for it aswell.
yeah but the SLP have the added assurance of the bigger lip on the outside of the pulley to keep the belts safe and secure on the pulley, not sayin ASP pulleys are bad but SLP has alittle more reliability so to speak.
you could change the alternator pulley if its an automatic to keep the volts up, the tensioner might need to be changed, but that keeps the stock pulley just different bracket. and the Idler pulleys like to squeek on these cars but thats an easy fix, only if the pulley squeeks of course.

Verdad Gallardo Kewl, thanks guys. Now I need a bunch of free warm weekends to do this and other small jobs. The prevous seller gave me new belts and the pulley, but not sure about a new crank bolt. Is that something you only can get at the stealership?

yea i have the asp one now for about month and so far no probs. mine came with a bigger alt pulley, so i put it on, but now my volts drop near the top of red. so after i go to the track on sunday im gonna install my stock alt. pulley which is way smaller then the one that came with the asp crank pulley.
Not to hijack the thread, but can we fit a 3-ton 3-arm puller on the pulley with the radiator/fan in?
I used one to pull my pulley when I installed my cam, but that puller is a big sonofabitch and it seems like it might not fit w/ the whole radiator/fan setup in the car still.

3-ton pulley puller why do you need one that big??? but if you have taken a pulley off before with it then i guess use it, but you most likely will have to take the radiator and cooling fans off.

I've had an ASP pulley for about 6 months now. The belt started squeeking once so I popped the hood to check it out...the accessories belt was half way of the pullies. Its the only time its happened, we'll see if it happens again. If it does, I might switch to SLP.
