You might wanna re-torque the crank bolt after a little bit of driving. My Stock OEM pulley came off and with it detroyed the key on the crank shaft and spun my crank bending all the valves just a month ago or so. I had to replace my motor. There had not been any work done on the lower end of the car at all. It just came loose. Weird I thought.
Here are the pics as I was removing the motor.





and then the re-install with a new undersdrive pulley. I torqued the he!! out of that bolt....I pray it doesn't ever come back off.

No, you can reach the crank pulley bolt from under the car.

I had a before and after dyno when my UR underdrive pulleys were installed and the shop said that there were no gains.

didnt do the dyno after the install because per UR that results will show after 5-7 days or 200miles where maximum hp will be gained.
^I won't be able to dyno my car till 3 weeks from now. I'll post the results on here.

The lower the inertia of a rotating object, the easier it is to spin. Imagine if I put carbon fiber wheels on you bicycle - you still have the same power but you're going to get going a lot quicker. The down side is that as soon as you stop pedaling you lose momentum quicker.

Same idea behind lighter flywheels and wheels.
