My best guess is one is used for a general street car and one for pretty much a track only car......

The race version only drives the altanator and the street version is if you want p/s or a/c or both.

The street version has full-size drive pulleys for alternator, P/S and A/C, the race version just has a small alternator underdrive pulley.

Also the street version is smaller and heavier than the race pulley.

I run the race one... its my Daily Driver and it is fine though the 40% underdrive does dim my lights and occasionally my battery light will flicker when taken off... other then that it is fine

i would get the street version. Friend of mine bought the race version and it damn neat ruined his brand new crank. The problem with the race one is that the center is made out of aluminum and your pressing it on to a steel crank. The keyway slot in the pulley was all stretched out and the thing almost spun on the crank. He only used it for maybe 10 or 15 passes.

if this is your daily driver i would get the heavier street version. there is alot of shock, harmonic stress on the crank especially on cyl # 1 and 2. You have a flywheel,disk,pressue plate on the rear side of the crank to dampen the shock but on the other end the crank needs to balanced just as well. I think on a street car youd be more in favor of getting the motor to last than less rotational mass.. speaking from experience
