"High RPM" as limited by the factory PCM RPM limit, yes, if the damper is in good condition. This means the rubber ring hasn't deteriorated .

The SLP is just a reboxed Powerbond U/D pulley.

Plenty of people run the crap out of these pulleys with no issue. Its when you start talking about higher RPM stuff, when they really arent a good idea. I have U/D pulleys on both of our WS.6s, daily driven, and slightly abused with no issues whatsoever. I will add that both are stock bottom ends, and dont see anything more than about 63-6400rpm.

That's a nice set up soundengineer. I'll be ordering mine w/o the allocated AC pulley here soon.

I like that motor plate set up you have. I wish I could find out more about it....

aeicnc.com

he's in the process of moving right now, so the shop will be closed down and a very limited amount of production will be done...
but he can probably still get the motor plate cut for you...its just gonna take a little bit longer than it normally would.
