Default Under Drive Crank Pulley?

considering one of these but in the description it says SOHC only.. would it fit my ZC? also how easy is it to change the pulley.

the crank bolt is the only hard thing to get off. you have to have a decent impact gun to get it loose. Although ive seen it done with a 3/4 inch brakerbar with a 5 foot long pipe extending it. while someone held the crank still with a chain wrench.

I put one of that style pullys on my b i like it. im pretty sure you want a single over head cam pully for the ZC but im not sure because there are a bunch of ZC motors.

you don't need a crank pully. The oem crank pulley may be heavy, it is. Yet, the oem crank pully is also harmonically balanced, which doesn't create a lot of vibration compared to this aftermarket one.

you might free up enough rotating mass to gain 1 whp, maybe a little more... but the stress on you're bearings is not a considerable trade off.
