Power Steering Pulley?
Who makes a good one? Is there one that isn't solid, so you can get at the bolt that's trapped on the stock model? Thanks.
Edit: LS6 motor, stock.

I took a hole saw and cut a couple of 1" holes in the pulley opposite of eachother and at different differences from the center.
I put a 13 mm socket through and loostened the pump perfectly.
It does not make a vibration or anything and certianly didn't weaken it.
good luck

Use the stock GM aluminum LS2 pulley. It has "spokes", is the same diameter, is cheap and is a "plug-n-play" (no mods of any kind). Problem solved

I did the same. This pulley is steel and less than $20 from the dealer.
If you like polished billet aluminum than RevXtreme is the way to go.

Good advice given. Go get the LS2 pulley and be done with it. No problems to deal with.

They are all machined very well. I like all of mine a lot and you can't beat the price at all.
