LT1 crank pulley on gen 1 sbc
Can I use this LT1 underdrive pulley on a gen 1 sbc with 88-92 f-body accessory drive?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Pulley-Cran...ycmBSsfo2#rwid
In searching it sounds like one hole is offset 5° on the LT1 from a gen 1, but that's all I saw in searching...
Would it work if I elongated one hole?
Thanks.

Re: LT1 crank pulley on gen 1 sbc
no,LT1 crank damper/pulley will not work-belt grooves are way too far back at the very least...Nobody makes underdrive pulley for 88-92 anymore?

Re: LT1 crank pulley on gen 1 sbc
Thanks for confirming that for me. Yeah I see ASP 540800, which is just the crank pulley. $104 is a hard pill to swallow, even if it's made in America. I have a 253 amp AD244 alternator, so I'm not concerned with trying to speed it back up. Everything else I see has the alternator pulley I don't want to pay for.

I just found this aluminum set for like $63:

I just measured though, and the crank pulley is very close in size to factory so scratch this one too...

Don't use the large alt pulleys on the street. It won't charge well.
In fact, use a smaller than factory GM pulley, I got a few from fox mustangs that are smaller.

Re: LT1 crank pulley on gen 1 sbc
This doesn't make any sense, and this didn't show up in my search of Summit the first time... But Auto Specialties 540801 costs $101.99 and includes the alternator pulley with the crank pulley. 540800 is only the crank pulley and costs $103.99. I don't understand it, but I think it's clear which one to buy.

I think I still have a March underdrive crank pulley left in my parts bin if you are interested.
It is for a L98
