Spare crank puley
flak monkey - 13/9/09 at 04:39 PM

Looking for a spare crank pulley (or one to borrow for a week to measure up) for a duratec.

1.8, 2.0 or 2.3 they are all the same.

Just need to take some measurements so I can make myself a smaller pulley....

Cheers,
David

Could be teaching you to suck eggs but
if you do that make sure you time the cams and crank before undoing the crank pulley bolt!

As the stock one is 132mm diameter and rotrex dont make a pulley big enough (115mm) to give me the boost i need.

A 110mm crank pulley will give me a good starting point with a 95mm pulley. Giving me plenty of scope to go up and down a long way on pulley sizes should I choose.

I should have one on the way. If that falls through I will let you know goaty
