Hi,
Curious what the consensus is for replacing the underdrive pulleys on an '89 LX 5.0L?

I've heard possible overheating problems or issues with the alternator.

I have an electric fan to install to help with the overheating problem.

Any suggestions good or bad? I just don't want to do a simple mod that will cause massive problems for me later. I'm just looking for a little more horse. Is 15 - 20 hp worth it on an AOD '89 5.0L?

Thanks,
Justin
