Installing GTM Vortech tension pulley tmw

Ok... I am going to be giving the GTM tension pulley a shot tomorrow.

I'll post my impressions and the installation process tomorrow afternoon...

how much did they charge u? I would think the timrod method would have been cheaper and better. I would also think slippage occur more frequent on the other side than the top.

I will...

Getting my camera charged up.

There should not be too much to it actually... And as for the timrod VS this... This seems to have more contact with the SC pulley... and you can always combine the two if you like...

I love the results so far.... throttle response is instantaneous and the belt is as tight as a friggn drum... (I might loosen it up a bit, I got the tension reeeeaaaaaal tight)

Don't go too tight and mess up the bearings.
