It does not come with a belt, I have found that there are just to many versions of pulleys that people are running to try and keep up with all the possible sizes. The instructions will include the belt size for standard stock and under drive setups.

Thanks,
Dan

Chadwick, have you compared bearing wear on engines with light weight flywheels? I would think you would see similar results.

I plan on picking up your idler pulley sometime after I get my auto to manual swap done.

Both sets of bearings pictured were from cars with light weight flywheels.

I know this is kind of grave digging, but I was wondering if there is any long term feedback on these idlers pulley kits and if any are still in production. Looking to get a kit ASAP. Thanks!

I have them ready to ship. It will work with some single turbo setups .My pulley has a double row bearing so it will not twist out of plane .The brackets are steel and will not flex and is fully adjustable Has any one with my idler had a failure ? Let us know .

The Tweakit kits are still in production and the single turbo kit will fit all applications and we still offer the original twin turbo kit as well.

I've had David's (Garfinkle) pulley for 2 or 3 years now with no issues.
