Underdrive Pulleys & Mach 360
Hey all,
I am seriously considering putting on the underdrive pulleys this week, but I am a little worried about the charging factor. My car is a daily driver and I do sit around in traffic quite a bit. Has anyone experienced any problems with running Steeda (or any other brand) pulleys on a stock alternator in a 2004 GT? The last thing I want to do is cause damage. Thanks ahead of time for the expertise! -Narsh |

Re: Underdrive Pulleys & Mach 360
I'm running the same setup and have no problems. If you change them all, alt, waterpump, and crank, you should have no issues. The problems usually come when the only the water pump, and crank are replaced. Then people will complain about it, and well, you get the idea.

Perfect! Thanks guys...
After this I'll be headed towards the exhaust but I am saving up to get the midpipe and the catback at the same time. I am hoping to be in the 13's with that setup... Air Fiter Pulleys Cat Back Midpipe Narsh |

Re: Underdrive Pulleys & Mach 360
narshada, were you concerned with the pulley kit effecting the ability of your alternator to recharge your battery correctly?

I am concerned with the battery recharge and any other negative effects. A lot of the guys here have the pulleys installed and I wanted any thoughts really..

Newer stangs don't have trouble with underdrive pulleys like 5.0s did.
