As far as accessory output "quality" with the lumpier idle?

Just found one answer after checking the search again. Still couldn't find anyone with comments on the b303 and pulleys but one asnwer: Don't put the under-drive alt pulley on. Well, that's one option because it doesn't net any HP anyway. Your accessories won't hurt as a result.

I had the b cam a couple years ago. I had no issues at all with voltage output with the stock alt, and yes i had underdrive pulleys.

you could always get a better alt. if that one isn't supplying enough power. but unless ur in need of more, shouldn't make a difference. you might see it in the headlights, but shouldn't be a problem

I recommend the "F" cam . pulls alot harder up top and sounds great at idle, I also have the pullies on and when running the air at night you can notice a little drop in lights at idle , but no big deal

I don't think a cam should affect the accessories much, as long as your idle doesn't go down. Maybe I'm wrong. All I know is with my stock cam and pulleys, I was draining my battery real bad with my stereo. I finally swapped back to my stock alt. pulley. Someday I'll get a better alternator, but all my money is going towards my engine buildup right now.
