1. Don’t know of any local company to make pulleys. What do you need pulleys for or is it completely custom. I sell March pulleys and I can get custom made stuff at ASP [http://www.aspracing.com/index.html](http://www.aspracing.com/index.html)

2. Not local but probably one of the best around [http://www.witchhunter.com/](http://www.witchhunter.com/)

ive looked and cannot find a pulley kit for this my motor…  
im hoping to preplace the factory crank with an aluminum piece for two reasons.

the stock one is so rusty its amazing.  
the stock one weights about 20 pounds.

id also mayne like to get a p/s pulley reproduced in alluminum…maybe in a slightly smaller diameter…

im pretty sure i need to send my stock pieces away and have them copied  
thanks for the injector site…pretty sheap too

I had custom pulley’s made by pulley brothers - [www.pulleybros.com](http://www.pulleybros.com)

They are great, would highly recommend them over a standard machine shop.

The reason the stock one is so heavy is because it’s a harmonic balancer…

I would not replace it unless you replace it with an ATI unit or something.

Well, a harmonic damper is a multi-piece assembly with tuned rubber rings in it and a weigted outer shell… it’s not something you can just give to a machine shop and say “hey, make this”

just spoke to the machinist at pulleyboys…old nissan guy that has seen the swap in the past…

said he has done balanced pulleys in the past but its a gamble…like i fugured the pulley would be balanced but not for the internals…  
im gunna pull this thing off and send him some pics and specs on it and go from there
