has anyone got the high performance pullys off summit? Or anywhere. It comes with the cam pully and the alternator pully. But I can't remove either one. Can anyone give me step by step instructions for removal?

 

pulley puller

 

For the cam? The whole thing spins when I try to take off the main bolt.

 

Cam pulley = timing chain sprocket.

Under drive crank pulley? You'll need to use the above mentioned puller. There are free rentals from Autozone, O'reillys and such.

 

I'm guessing he means crank pulley, not cam pulley, which I guess would be the sprocket on the timing chain. Use an impact gun that'll buzz it right off of there. We actually have enough space under the hood to fit an impact and deep socket, unlike V8's

 

Silver lining.

 

I bought these:

Yeah, that's the crank pulley. Just use an impact to ge the middle bolt lose, the other 4 should come off with just a wrench. I just replaced mine this week.

I would advise against you installing the alternator pulley though. Most people who do have charging problems I think. Mine charges good even at idle with just the crank pulley, but starts to drain with the fan turned up and the lights on. With the alt pulley too I imagine the car drains the battery most of the time..

 

Deng! That means it won't fit. Are stock 2.8l for 89 sbc? I clicked GM gen I or something.

 

I don't get it? If the link you posted it to what you bought then yo have the right thing..

 

Shoot, confused myself. Is it the one I pointed to in the pic? The crank pully?

 

yes the one you poinyed to is the crank pulley, and the one you should remove to put the new pulley on.

 

Alright, thank you. If I have anymore questions, I'll be sure to ask.

 

Have another question.
How do hp pullys work anyway?

 

They turn your serp. belt slower so less power is used on accessories and more power can go to the wheels.

 

Ohh. So that's not so good for charging up the car?

 

your explanation make sense, but don't alternators require a certain speed to work properly.. and also wouldn't less coolant be flowing? Dumb questions but there is always something to learn lol

well never mind the alternator.. there is a different pulley included in the kit..

 

Crank and alternator. That's all I got. I'm not sure abou the question. It makes sence though.
