March pulleys are piggyback I believe, which are not the type you want. You will not need a new belt. I would avoid them though... I'm sure someone who knows will be around to comment.

If the March set is SFI approved, then I would get them... If not, get Steeda. And you shouldn't need a new belt.

That you bolt the new underdrive crank pulley to the stock piece. Steeda, which is not piggyback, replaces the crank pulley with a new one.
