Default U/D Pulleys

What is the best brand to get? I know that steeda makes them for like just under $200 and claim 8-10 hp. But are there any better ones out there?

isn't it the circumference that's 42% smaller?

Steeda makes the best. There are many brands but I personally trust steeda the most.

Steeda and March both make non-piggyback UDP's now.Go with the non-piggyback style or to have a harmonic balancer you will have to bolt your old stock balancer to the new pulley.If you plan on adding a timing adjuster later you must use Steeda or March.

Ford Racing and March are two other options. I have March on my '98 GT and have never had an issue with them since day one.
