haven't heard of them messing up your alternator but have heard they don't spin the alternator as fast so it doesn't charge as well. I know I had that prob on my 5.0 after putting them on.

u/d pullies really aren't expensive tho.. but i would do some other upgrades first

like the cai, header, cam & valvetrain, etc.
