Default Another Pulley Question...

I would really like to get the Steeda Underdrive Pulleys after reading the great reviews you guys are giving them. But I am worried about charging problems because of my stereo. I have a 2001 GT with the Mach 460 and have added a 300 watt amp for my woofers. Is this too much power that will take a toll on the engine with the pulleys in? Thanks in advance.

You should be fine. If I was you though I'd go with the March Pulley set.

why is that... Steeda and March have very respectable backgrounds. I would say go with either.

March pulley's I believe like they say were standard on the Y2K Cobra R. They don't have the name they do for no reason. Steeda is nice but as far as parts from them go I owuld only get cams or suspension parts from them.

Why? Isn't the march a piggy-back style?

If so, I'd prefer the Steeda.

Steeda all the way. Not even a comparison IMO. Steeda has always only sold top quality parts. I've got steeda underdrives and 4* advanced timing through my JMS chip - I don't run any hotter than stock (in 90* weather) and my charging gauge hasn't moved a bit either. Not to mention if you ever intend to go with a Steeda Timing adjustor - they won't work with March pullies.

THE TIMING ADJUSTER IS AN AWSOME UPGRADE TOO!!! I can feel the added power and the smoother take off. Its great!
