Pulley & Belt Requirements
To support high output and proper alternator speed, this Elite Series unit is equipped with a smaller pulley:
- Uses a 1.75" diameter alternator pulley
- Requires a ½" to ¾" shorter than stock length belt for correct tension
- If the proper shorter belt is not used, it can result in very low or no output and create extra workload on the alternator
Installation Notes
This unit comes equipped with a smaller 1.75 inch diameter alternator pulley and will require a slightly shorter drive belt for proper belt tension. It is not recommended for sustained use above 5,000 RPM engine speed.
