I tried to look at mine but can get the number off it..I'll pull it this weekend to see.
Lotus and your pullies are some damn rusty parts..
** EDIT **
Could someone with a ASP setup confirm the part number on the idler bearing - I'll look up the specs on the bearing supplied with mine and see what the duty cycle and max RPM are.
Perhaps a bearing upgrade is possible; if a better one is availible. Not much to press fit it in.
The ASP idler pictured isn't on my car. It was the replacement part sent to me by LET (only correctly sized idler Jerry could get his hands on at the time). He told me it was used, with about 2k miles on it; when it showed up at my mechanic's shop, he wasn't keen on putting it on the car - called me and said "um, it looks like they pulled a part out of a junk yard..."
