Hey guys. Wanted to let you know I'm selling a brand new pulley kit on eBay. It'll fit all the supercharged v6 models.

You can always get an opinion from one of your local speed shops on it. And if you don't want it for any reason or aren't satisfied I'll return the money in full. =)

Mhm. And feel free to compare bidding prices and make a decision. I tend to handle the eBay side of things. =)

Best,
Kevin

What concerns me, though, is that there are no specifications on the pulley, aside from it's an overdrive pulley. No instructions for installation, from what I see, no research info, nothing.

I mean, $400 is cheap for 35 hp, but it's not worth me losing a $10K motor. :/

One more thing. 225 mm? That seems REAL big, considering the largest I've ever heard of is the 185mm pulley offered by LET.

Well you have different pulley's for different models. For example - I have a pulley that I'll be listing soon for the C32 specifically. That one is exactly 185mm which is probably what you're thinking of.

I'll have a dyno sheet up this week actually and hopefully the installation instructions. But at least then you'll know what to expect and not worry about getting hosed.

I know, but he lists the pulley as working for all V6 SC MB engines. So my question is to which engine the seller is referring to if its not the M112K.

excellent question. no idea. 225mm would blow something up. the largest currently being run is a 192 but only one person is running it. there are no other s/c V6 engines from MB, so not sure what the deal is....hmm

It *is* a bit frustrating. I mean, I want to put a crank pulley kit on my car, but $1500 from Evosport is too rich for my blood, and I've been pondering doing a used one, but of course, I'm concerned about that because needless to say, there's no warranty on the parts or towards the car should damage happen, and you can't truly guarantee the condition of the pullies.

So seeing stuf like this makes you want to jump on it, but at the same time, hold off because there's just not enough info. :/
