Piggyback pullies and UPR Timing adjuster

The Deuce · 02-01-2003, 07:08 PM

I have a chance to get some BBK piggyback style pullies at about half price. They are the piggyback style, and I want to be sure they'll work with my UPR T/A.

Anyone?

So I've come to realize that most people may not know what the UPR t/a is like. The only real info I need is about the pullies.

They are BBK pullies. Does the crank pully stick out farther than stock with the piggyback pully? On my t/a there is a notch that will line up with the stock crank pully. If the bbk pully is the same width, and has the notch, it will work. Any info would be great.

I haven't done it but i will throw my $.02 in. I would think it would work since the UPR si basicly the old style steeda unit and people have been running piggy back pulleys with it for years if the price is good enough i would risk it and if it didn't fit resell them for what i had in them.

Thanks Shaggy.

I figured it'd be a fairly obscure question, and the pullies are now on their way.
