Worth it or not? I'm thinking of going with the AEM tru-power pulley kit. Anyone used them?

I would not reccomend removing the stock crank pulley unless your motor has been fully prep'd, spec'd, and balanced (rotating assembly and clutch assembly together).
Even then, I would not go with a cheap pulley.
Stick with stock; yes I know it costs more for a new one, but they are more reliable than the cheap pulleys from Ebay.
Do you really need the harmonic balancer that is built into the stock crank pulley if the bottom end is professionally balanced with a lighter pulley w/o the hb?
btw this is without balance shafts
I was just wondering what people thought of the ebay underdrive pulley on there 2gnt. If anyone has/is use(d)(ing) this pulley, let me know what you think of it. A buddy of mine has it and doesn't want it some he's willing to give it to me cheap. He hasn't installed it on his car so I couldnt ask him. Let me know what you guys think and how it compares to higher end ones, such as unorthadox racing and AFX. Is it worth the money to go with the better one, or is the ebay one just as good? Please let me know, any information will be extremely helpful. Thanks!
Well I personally wouldn't go with a knock off brand UDP, any imperfections could cause you trouble. The AFX isn't very expensive, I would just go with that. Thats just my opinion though.
Verwy, Verwy dangerous! Out of balance pulley, makes out of balance rotational set-up, makes for rockin' and rollin' crank, makes for bad engineI was just wondering what people thought of the ebay underdrive pulley on there 2gnt.
