I just installed a RVM race pulley onto my B18A1 (has like 60,000 mi)

and it had a smaller diameter than the stock one, so i had to get a smaller belt, and then my alternator died about a week later. Wondering if the new pulley could have burned it out, from making alternator spin at a wierd speed?

Any input appreciated

 

did you test out the voltage output after install?

 

no , i should have tho! i was just so happy that it ran!

 

i noticed that there has been big debates on aftermarket crank pulleys, but nobody's mentiond the RVM race pulley.

here's the big debate

The reason crank pulleys damage engines is because no one thinks to use a dampner. They'll just throw on the pulley and be happy it ran. " Sorry dude, I had to."
