That's a bunch of bunk. I've never heard of ANYONE getting a cracked
block because they put pulleys in. A few friends and myself have all
put Steeda's pulleys in our cars, and I haven't noticed an increase
in running temperature one bit. Also, it doesn't slow down the
alternator THAT much - our cars are all equipped with the high-output
alternators anyway, so that little bit of slow-down doesn't affect it
much (I have a '00 GT). The only thing I would recommend against, is
if you have a high-wattage stereo system in your car. That then will
make your headlights dim a bit, but nothing will be adversely
affected.
Pulleys are safe and if installed correctly, are a great mod for mid-
higher RPM torque & HP. They helped my quarter mile times
dramatically - with just the pulleys I dropped my ET by about a
quater-second. If they were problematic, you would have heard about
it before... ;)
