I have replaced close to 20 or so intercoolers and on the SLK32's and C32's only a few of them have had a pulley but every SRT6 I've replaced one in has had a pulley on it so I'd say it's about 50/50.

BTW, hope you took care of this before you buttoned everything up or you'll be looking at the same thing on the new ones in a few thousand miles.
