I checked on March Pulley site but looks like they only sell a full kit...I do not trust the plastic pulley with my Roe S/C...PS Gen 2 Car...Thanks...AL...

I know that Archer has them not sure if anyone else is making them.
Al I wouldn't worry about the pulley so much, it's the bracket that holds the P/S pump to the motor that breaks! DLM makes a soliod bracket.

You can definately get one (nice billet aluminum piece that looks and will perform much better) from Archer Racing, I had to this summer when at Viper Days my plastic pulley separated from the metal hub....not a very good design. The failure in my opinion had more to do with heat cycles than anything else. I'm sure that plenty of you drive your car as hard or harder than I do, I don't think it had anything to do with being at Viper Days that weekend. I sure was glad that it did happen there, where I had the great support that you can always count on at a Viper Days event!

I'm calling March tomorrow. Tator is sending me new hoses and I figure it's time to swap out the pulley. I'll probably call Roe too for the overflow tube. And DLM for the bracket.

I've been there and done it, and sat out of race days because of breakages...OE PS pulley bust first X 2, then you upgrade that (Bobby Archer) then the bracket gives-out (DLM) ..then when replaced you can finally go play (me next year)...

I grenaded my pulley, but my bracket was fine. Since I had to take off the pump anyway, I also replaced the bracket.

The stock pulley is a cheap plastic pulley. I replaced it with the March pulley.
