I've got BBK underdrive pullies. There are no side affects, Oh, you might want to get an inch or two shorter belt though. Might have some belt squeal problems.

Other than that, thats it.

Belt squeel? I've never seen a 4.6 where the belts don't squeel during shifts or after letting off the throttle during hard acceleration. This is aproblem with 4.6's. A shorter belt wouldn't hurt though. The tension is supposed to be able to compensate for the smaller pulleys though.

No side effects. Just put mine on last weekend and definitely feel the HP gain. Pulls much harder now. Usually don't notice the gains on some mods but this I did. All the accessories still work as they did before. AC's cold, radio's loud, lights are bright....

My belt would squel between shifts in racing when it was stock. Now that I put the pullies on, and some other stuff, it squeals bad in the shifts, plus every now and then when I have the AC on, or Defroster on.

An inch shorter belt will cure it, but I'm just to lazy to do it. I will this weekend. I'll let my dad help me out since hes going to be down from PA. I know its easy and only takes a minute, but its a way to spend time and bond with my dad.
