The water pump pulley should speed it back up to normal not slow it down more.

 

With this set would i need to get a new belt if so how much would this run me? Also, is this all the stuff i need buy the kit and throw it on my motor and i'm good to go?

i think as stated above if u got that kit you should be good.. u gain the extra power and still keep good charge for the alternator.. mine was 36-53 with shipping so that kit is prob gonna be like 70-80 after shipping!

 

good news.. im prob gonna get my pulley installed tomorrow. hopefully im taking it to my buddys he has all the tools and gonna get at it.. hopefully everything goes good.

 

since they are BOTH underdrive, you will need a shorter belt.

The only way you don;t need a shorter belt is to get the 3 piece march pulley set. About 160 dollars. ALSO, you need to check your crank pulley and water pump.

If your truck is 1998+ you will need to get the 1997 and earlier water pump. 1998 and up has a water pump with a PRESSED IN pulley on the water pump.

Also, if you have a 2000-2001 5.9, you will need to get a new balancer. The 2001-2001 has a ONE PIECE balancer and pulley. So you cannot use the stock balancer. You need to get the balancer that you bolt to the pulley yourself.

 

95 inch belt with the 2 underdrive pulleys? Also, where could i get a new belt at?

 

idk about if ur gonna need a new belt.. but dont quote me on that one.. but u can get a new belt from any auto part store just tell them the size.. 95 or 95 3/4 not sure those are just the 2 that have been listed above!

 

do not get the hughes set. You will not like underdriving your alternator.

Get this one from hi-potek

Email Rich and tell him if he will match the price on the steel pulley (or give you free shipping). he will probably be able to get you hooked up with a belt as well.

He is a great guy to work with. He is getting me a 3 high cat (CA emissions) magnaflow system SHIPPED for 20 dollars cheaper than the NON SHIPPED price from another site.

 

thats quoted at 25% and hughes is at 30% and thats a good 30$ more for 25% to the 53 shipped 30%

 

did you get ur pulley in yet?
