8 rib guys... question...

[gtpsleeper]

so I have all the 8 rib pulleys and just need the 8 rib crank to make my setup complete... my question is... which one should I get?

SFI - 8 Rib SFI Balancer #

W Body Store

Im leaning more toward the Wbodystore one as shipping through them would be free right now...

thoughts? experiences?

thanks,

Get the sweet billet overdrive one and don't second guess it. Seriously.

 

[gtpsleeper]

for serious? what makes it so much better than wbodys other than the overdrive?

I have the 8-rib Powerbond on my Bonneville. I couldnt see spending 250+ on the SFI

 

[Bio248]

because its a billet masterpiece. i also dont think the weighted part of it is rubber anymore, so it's no longer a wear part.

 

[gtpsleeper]

maybe Ill just wait a week or 2 to save up some more if its really worth it... hmmm

If I had the money I would have gone with the billet one. But I got the powerband one for a good price and don't have any problems with it. If you want a smooth 3.5in idler pulley its from a dodge ram. Gave me more wrap but I'm also on Bonnie tensioner.

I already have the over sized pulley now... but wasn sure (didn look) if itd be wide enough for the 8 rib...

i dunno... bein in college with limited money sucks when it comes to all this

does the 5% overdrive put 5% more strain on the engine?

 

[gtpsleeper]

as far as I know it doesn... will just spin the pulley at a different speed than normal

 

[Swiggles]

its only a 5% increase on the SC part, the accessories part is stock size. im pretty sure anyways.

Make sure you get the oil neck spacer too
