are there any pullie kits that might fit our cars? i know indigo has that GT pullie, but i want a whole kit, like altenator, crank, etc...
any kits similar to ours?

nope, it is eather you have to make them or you can take it to a shop and compare them with some other honda pulleys.

why would you want Pullies anyway? (pulley for singular by the way) our cars aint pushing that much power let alone a carb. also, i would say get them if your gonna get lightweight flywheel. underdrive pullies are for people who have lotsa goodies packed under the hood. :idea:

pullies help the accessories spin faster and work 'better'.

ummm... no they don't. They make them easier to spin makin them work worse and the crank spin easier. IF you have been in a car with underdrive pullies, the alternator voltage output is low because it is spinning slower .

it is spinning slower becasuse you got oversized pulley. if you get the same size pullies you shouldn't see any diff or you will see slight improvement.

Don't worry about pulley kit's... if you really want to minimize Accessory resistance... just remove the A/C and PS belts... and related components.

i know the reason for the usage of underdrive pullies man. its called reducing the rotational mass or rotational moment of inertia in the technical sense. But i was asking why do YOU want it. Maybe i should have rephrased my question.

Cause you are not the first one to ask about this and if u hit the Search, you know u will be finding threads related to it. :rolleyes:
