pulley question

im swapping from V-6 to a 350 about to get the motor built but i was trying to decide what belt system to use i came across these and wanted to know if anyone has used them?

Im not gonna have power steering so i thought this would be great, any input would be appreciated.

Re: pulley question

more for show, unnecessary, but it should work fine.

Re: pulley question

it should be stronger than a regular serpentine system huh? having the grooves instead of a regular belt?
or less slip in some case?

It'll be fine as long as you don't care about things like power steering, air conditioning, or emissions.

Factory systems aren't that hard to come by.

Re: pulley question

the reason i wanted the other ones cause there not as expensive and in my opinion still look good, im not going to have power steering, ac, or emissions, so i thought these would be perfect....thanks for the input!
