you know i have been wondering the same thing.... i wanna get a lightweight alt. pulley (but not have it custom-made...) i dont care about the power steering or ac because i'll be dropping those with my udp install....

so this is a bump i guess.... :wary

Are you talking about overdrive accessory pullies? You can't use overdrive acc pullies and and underdrive pulley at the same time. Your accessories won't spin fast enough to be useful...that includes your alternator.

do we have the same alternator or ps pully? Do we have the same engine? is it on the same side of the engine? I dont see how this would work. But then again theres always exceptions.

I don't think any of those pulleys adds very much weight. sounds kinda pointless to me, the crank pulley is one heavy mofo though that's why we replace em. I guess you could change the powersteering pulley but its kinda hollowed out a lot already.
