HE RETURNED MY E-MAIL THE SAME DAY AND ASKED ME HOW MANY SPACERS I USED AND DID THE PULLEY WORK.ON THE EVENING OF APRIL 13TH AT 11:32 PM I SENT ANOTHER E-MAIL SAYING I DID NOT USE ANY SPACERS THATS NOT THE PROBLEM. ITS THE GAP THAT I CAN'T REDUCE BECAUSE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE MACHINED TO FIT.
TODAY SAT. THE 18TH 4:55 PM EST I STILL HAVE NOT HEARD FROM HIM. I TOLD HIM IN MY LAST E-MAIL THAT THE PULLEY WORKS NOW BUT IT HAS TO BE PUTTING TO MUCH STRESS ON THE PULLEYS PLASTIC BACK PLATE AND I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT WILL LAST.I RESENT MY LAST E-MAIL TODAY.
WHEN I INSTALLED THE ORIGINAL 63 MM CODE 3 S/C PUULLEY, IT CAME WITH INSTRUCTIONS THAT THE SPACE BETWEEN THE PULLEY AND THE CLUTCH SHOULD BE 20 TO 30 THOUSANTS.JUST A HEADS UP TO EVERYBODY, FROM WHAT I'M READING AND EXPERENCING THE CODE 3 PULLEYS ARE A PROBLEM AND SO IS THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE.
READY TO PUT ON THE 178 CRANK PULLEY REMOVE THE CODE 3 PULLEY AND SEND IT BACK AND GET A REFUND.LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS. "PISSED IN N.Y. ILLCYA
It depends on how fast you want to go? Get the 178 if you want to be faster than the SC pulley and 185 guys. Pretty simple. If you just want some extra kick without the pulleys then follow jfire's thread. That will be an interesting setup. Not cheap but reliable since it's not overdriving the SC like the rest of us.
