Default Under drive pulley

I have a Powerbond under drive pulley from Texas Speed that came off of my 2010 LS3 Camaro. Can it be used on my 2007 Vette? I know the serp belt might be a little different but A/C should be the same, right?

Are you asking if the LS2 crank OD is the same size as an LS3 to verify if the LS3 UD pulley will fit on an LS2?
If so I just took a pair of calipers to an old LS2 HB and the ID of the HB (where it slides over the crank shaft) measures approx 1.48". Just verify that your UD measures the same.

No problems at all. Great way to pick up 1/10 in the quarter.

I'm pretty sure it's the same diameter. I'm more concerned with how it's keyed and how deep the pulley goes over the snout.

Off the top of my head, only because I haven't looked hard into it, but, most the time, the Corvette front drive placement is unique to the vette and not shared by other chassis', so it tends to make the dampers unique.

You could look up the part #s and see if they match .....

But I can tell you that ATI shows two different part #s for between a vette/Camaro

I don't know the specs of the LS2 crank pulley, but I do know that the LS3 Corvette and Camaro do not use the OEM crank balancer/pulley.

The aftermarket pulley may work on either or....more research or a call direct to the maker of the pulley may be your best bet.

I just replaced one and the installation instructions state that the Corvette pulley is 0.852" shorter than the Camaro .

Thanks guys. Sounds like I'm better selling this one and getting a Vette specific pulley.
