Re: Underdrive pullies??? (jaybird81)
I have the set from March made for 71-82 Corvettes. Don't know if they really help as I put them on a new motor and never had any others on it. As long as I'm driving I run 180deg but I have noticed the temp goes up a bit sitting in traffic here in blistering hot Florida. I also have the Edelbrock alum water pump. I think dual SPAL fans are in order soon. I don't have any charging problems either.

I for one don't feel the power gains are worth the hassle of poor electrical performance. I'm tired of having to rev the engine to put up the windows at idle. Also during rain the electrical system can't keep up with the blower fan, wipers, headlights, stereo, and electric engine fan all drawing it down to 12 volts or lower. Once you get the rpms up it is fine, but at low speed and idle it sucks. I will be removing mine, I'm not satisfied with the gains versus electrical problems.
