Looks like a Gen2:
Code 3 Supercharger Pulley - C32 AMG Crossfire SRT6: eBay Motors (item 280546761938 end time Aug-16-10 18:26:39 PDT)

 

how do you tell the difference between gens?

 

I have no Idea " new generation " no shims needed /old came with shims to adjust! other than that I'm at a loss

 

First generation C3 is notable by the notches cut across the grooves in the pulley, that run perpendicular to the grooves and appear periodically around the circumference of the pully contact surface.

Next generation C3 does not have the cross notches.

And NOW we know "
Them Kennesaw people are on top of there GAME" (JK) that's for the info.

 

Not entirely true. My new gen came with shims. Setting the gap is crucial to proper operation... Some people just don't need more than the stock pulley. (Stock pulley has shims)

 

I have a 3rd. generation pulley which is aluminum. It came without shims, the clearance is wider than I've seen posted as correct but it works flawlessly. I don't plan on selling. Sorry.
I'll find where I have the info and post it here later.

Who here bought this one off ebay?

 

according to the auction nobody bought it. was a great price for the c3. YA SNOOZE YA LOSE!!

 

According to the picture, it was a stock pulley.

 

I had bid on it yesterday and then all of sudden the auction was cancelled by the owner. I hope it wasn't cancelled because of a backdoor sale by someone on this board, that wouldn't be cool!

 

They were talking on a MB forum that it was a stock pulley and no one should consider it for that reason. I'm thinking someone asked why a stock pulley was being advertised as a Code 3.

personally i wouldnt limit myself to a new gen c3. i have a 1st gen c3 pulley and it has performed flawlessly and i bought it used

 

I was watching that item too and was bummed when it ended early. However, if that was truly just a stock pulley, the seller was definitely wise to pull the auction. I asked the seller point blank to measure it and let me know whether it was the ~65MM (~2.5 inch) or the ~68MM (~2.75 inch) and he stated it measured about 2.5 inches across and it was the smaller Code3 pulley.

Since a stock one would measure about 3 inches, if it was a stock one, that would mean he totally gave me a B.S. reply and never measured the thing because there's no way you could mess up that bad when measuring and not be able to tell the difference between a 2.5" circumference and 3"!
