Looking for one with as few problems as possible. I heard with one the crank bolt backs out, another one the belt likes to jump off.. Obviously don't want to spend more than the average cost.

So.. who's good?

 

ATI makes a nice pulley

 

Asp...

 

Powerbond/SLP is "touted" for having non-belt-slip ribs and higher walls. ATI is touted for being a harmonic balancer, not just a pulley. And most people run the ASP, lol.

 

Got the Powerbond here, no problems yet. The pulley does have a higher wall where the belt goes around it, I don't see anyway that it could slip off.

Couldn't go wrong with the ASP or powerbond.

 

ASP, SLP, Powerbond top 3 and all 3 are great

 

Just stay away from March unless you like using makeshift tools and supersize pullers to take it off.

 

Are those all roughly the same amount of cheddar?

 

for the most part yea

 

SLP, March & Powerbond are all the same pully. I have the SLP and got it because of belt slippage issues a friend of min had with his ASP untill he got the KaTech tentioner. I gained 12rwhp & 12rwtq with it. No charging issues so far either.

 

i had a powerbond and i had belt issues... it also didnt have a large enough hub and it didnt seal well to my front cover seal...i leaked oil out front of motor liek crazy. also when i pulled it off it just bent itself all to hell


i orderd a SLP one and had much larger walls compared to the powerbond one

 

how much do these pulleys cost?

 

Around $200-$220 brand new. TSP has the Powerbond for $200:

Iv got a March on my car and Iv been quite pleased. w/ the pulley and a catback, the car dynoed 339rwhp and 350 rwtq. My buddy put it on (he has a lift) and it took maybe 20-30 minutes tops.

 

Yea... have you tried taking it off?

 

Speed, INC has ASP pulleys for $170.00. Thats where I just bought mine.

 

I have no reason in taking it off right now. I bought it to replace my stock pulley, its doing its job. Perhaps my opinion on it will change if i ever need to take it off.

 

....that was my point.

 

I have had good results with the March pulley on two different LS1 cars. However, I haven't had to remove one.

Arctic....didnt you go through a big ordeal with this? That's something to think about when deciding which one to go with....

 

Thats a good deal...and asp gets my vote
