Pulleys do give a gain
Too many peeps have seen it on the strip and on the dyno
Now ... is it gonna be a huge gain ... No
I've seen peeps report 1 to 1 and a half tenths on the strip
Also ... Pulleys are a common thing on better looking low/mid range
dyno curves that have caught my attention
And Why Should That Surprise Anybody
If you free up drag on the motor
Torque will be seen all across the power band :Word:
On stock or very mild modded Stangs that will still idle at like an
idle speed as low as 650 rpm ... pulleys will not put all that much
juice with the motor just barely spinning over and at night it is
likely you will see the lights dim a bit during idle
If you are running a big high draw amp sound system .......
Pulleys might not be something you would wanna do
Pulleys have worked out great for me
however
My cam needs an idle speed of about 900 rpm
and
I don't have a big sound system
I've never noticed my lights dimming at night
