dgt_mustang · August 5th, 2008, 11:17 AM

well i havent ordered them yet, but im trying to find at least a two piece, i was messing around with the search button and found motoblues but also alot of negative feedback on them, and i found your old old post torres back in 2006 about those ASP pullies you have, where did you get them? and if your selling them soon, how much??

You don't want a UD for the alternator, or you won't be producing enough electricity to power your car and recharge your battery.

dgt_mustang · August 5th, 2008, 11:46 AM

thats what everyone says if you have a system in the car, i dont,

JMack · August 5th, 2008, 11:49 AM

I dunno then, I personnally wouldn't risk it, however I'm not sure it's necessary

dgt_mustang · August 5th, 2008, 11:55 AM

Okay, heres the new predicament, the UDP im trying to get looks like i can only get the crankshaft pulley, quality wise, everyother pulley out there so far has negative feedback except ASP, since it looks like i can only get the crank pulley, would the Aluminum Driveshaft be more beneficial at this point?

Smoothgrandmama · August 5th, 2008, 11:58 AM

I would get the ds anyways but your not going to make your money back in gas. . . . . . and your only looking at 2-3 hp

dgt_mustang · August 5th, 2008, 12:00 PM

i said i wasnt going for peformance....im only looking at getting better gas mileage as of right now.

Smoothgrandmama · August 5th, 2008, 12:04 PM

Ok like i said your not going to make you money back on the gas. . . . . your best bet is a hydro booster. . . .

itschristorres8 · August 5th, 2008, 01:55 PM

if you get the ud pulleys get the alternator pulley as well. especially if you have extra electronic features like a stereo, GPS etc.

$3.76 isn't exspensive?? Plus it's only gone as low as $3.85 that I've seen in Tampa. I'm only 21 and I remember gas being under $2 a gallon, that's the kinda cheap I'm talkin' about. People shouldn't be makin' decisions about whether to eat dinner or have gas to get to work... not that I do but minimum wage doesn't help people fo shit.

That is true but in orlando it has been dropping fast from 4.05 to 3.73 now it went down as of yesterday lol

JTS · August 5th, 2008, 02:32 PM

I wish it was back at $2 a gallon or even better my parents time like 0.75 a gallon lol

I miss the days I used to get 89 octane for $.67 a gallon prior to 9-11-01. Back when I had one of about 4 in my hometown and the only one at my High School (I have paid every cent on my mustang as well).

We'll never see that again, and I'm willing to live with that.

O-well...
