Fixing my Electrical Problems with Under Drive Pullies

As much as I am a fan of under the curve power, I will be changing my setup on the top end of the motor with LE ported LT4 heads/intake with a Bret Bauer cam designed for my 383. Lloyd and Bret are aiming for a high 11 to 1 compression ratio.

Currently I have 11.25 to 1 as well as a CSR Ultralight mini starter. I like the started because a) its LIGHT and b) Header clearance issues are gone, the starter is no where near the collectors.

Well as we all know UD pullies at idle and and in gear (auto) will dip down to 12 volts, i get like 12.7 on my datamaster and even when I get on her, it may stay the same. The Alternator when i spin it freely makes bearing noises. So needless to say its going to get replaced.

With this motor being near the limit for cranking power on the starter, i want the most juice possible so I dont run into this issue.

But here is the issue, I cant seem to find anyone who wants to get rid of their STOCK crank pulley....If you have one and want to donate/sell it email me blkscreaminmach@hotmail.com or PM me here

So I looked and saw there way the Alternator pulley avalible from March...

Has ANYONE used both pullies?? Did it solve the electrical issues?? How did you install it on the Alternator??

If you can answer any of these questions, it would be much appreciated.
