can i use a lightend crank pulley of a ls/gsr on my 1st gen B16??
ls and gsr is diff....
gsr
ls
Question though: why do u really want a crank pulley? Yes it's smaller and lighter but think about it, the only accessory u really got is the alternator (unless u got a/c too). The gains aren't that impressive anyways, I'd say average 2whp. Also u r taking the risk associated with harmonic oscillation - especially the 3rd order one which can coz u to spin a bearing - say good bye to engine.
Some ppl say that the harmonic damage don't exist on older engines, but I didn't wanna take a chance so i sold mine. Is it worth taking the risk to find out the truth for an all impressive 2whp. In the end the decision is still urs...just my $0.02

Maybe u just didn't understand my post. The crank pulley should be diff between ls and gsr (one being vtec and other no); and that's why i said yeah, use the gsr one (i even put a thumbs up beside it)
But maybe i'm wrong in them being different cranks - but even then YEAH U CAN USE EM.

All b motor have the same crankshaft size so it will bolt up. I think that the pulley could look a little diffrent but it should work. I have a ls bottom end and I just ordered a type-r one to replace my bent LS one. Honda only makes one CTR n1 crank pulley to fit all b motors.
Shave your stock one down to only the alternator belt and get it balance, and the harmonic dampener will still be there and it will be a lot cheaper, It will also be lighter. So best of both worlds, with less costs!!!
