BBK pullies piggy back or what???

I have a set of BBK pullies on my car, I did not reuse the camshaft pulley. I used the one in the kit only. Its been on mine car for over a year. They are not all piggy back.

Agreed, was there a question? BBK makes more than one kind of pulley, piggy back and non-piggy back. I just say to make sure you don't get the piggy back syle.

ok, I bet that they are... I bet if you tried to install the old ones back on your car will start knocking.. I'd like to see a link of non-piggyback bbk's.

RE: BBK pullies piggy back or what???

If the pulleys you bought are pulleys without a SFI approved damper...you should install them correctly... & it's all questionable, but why not just be safe?

The harmonic vibrations will wear and tear that engine down. A lot of people don't bother with installing piggy-back pulleys correctly and never experience a problem, other people make it 5,000 miles before they have a crank that's in 2 pieces.
