I'm using the Summit one. Is it the same? It has worked fine for me for over 10K miles. I'm running the 6 rib base ECS kit and original pulley.

The Jegs on has a 10% OD. Looks like the summit is stock size.

Running the Jegs SFI OD balancer now with no issues. Only have about 1,500 mile so far but its working great.

I used the ARP crank bolt with Red loctite... Can't be too careful.

Here it is when I dropped it in.






What bracket/SC set up are you using?

It's on my new 408. Have yet to fire it though, so no feed back yet.

The only thing you need to watch for is the bracket spacing. Are you currently running 8 rib with the 8 rib spacers etc? If not you will likely need to. The bracket will hit it if not.

Pm A&A about using an 8 rib OD balancer with their kit.

I'm using it. Been on the car for over a year and 2500 miles, works great so far. I would not hesitate getting one.

Is your set up 6 rib or 8 ?

8 rib but you can use the 8 rib one on a 6 rib and it will work fine.

I am also using a 6 rib blower set on the 8 rib balancer but I have the procharger bracket. Like I said the only issue you may run into is if you are running a 6 rib A&A bracket set up because the bracket will likely contact the 8 rib balancer since it is wider.

You can fix this by using the 8 rib spacers etc to space the bracket out from hitting the balancer. A&A can help you make it work correctly if needed.

Do a search. I made a thread about this pulley a year or two ago. "Jegs" in your search should pull it right up. It has worked fine for me fyi. Im running the 8 rib OD with my blower at ~650whp with no problems.
