Now that I basically got my belt routing situation figured out and decided to go with a electric fan/water pump with DC controller, and a/c delete with p/s bracket to move it up, I had a question about running a race 50% on a street/weekend car that will have an electric fan/water pump.
I wont be running a big radio system just a cheap cd player so the biggest concern would be the charging system during idle when the fan and WP are going or even a few min. while there running to cool the engine in the staging lanes and the car is off. Only solution I could think of would be to run a sub 2" alt. pulley but I have yet to find one online, would it be possible to have one pressed in from another application like a similiar tensioner etc?
Also would I not notice much of a HP difference from the common BBK/MAC/March 20%-26% under drive sets comapred to a 50% crank? And would I need any type of spacer to run this crank with the stock balancer? Or will the stock crank pulley just come off and I just need to bolt the new one in?
