Pulley advice please.

I have pieced together the P1SC kit for my 1998 F-150 4.6 with the exception of the blower pulley. I am leaning toward the Reichard Racing Ultragrip. Does anyone have any experience with the SCH pulleys. The prices are very good but I'm worried about belt slippage. I'm looking for a 3.4 inch pulley. Does anyone see a slipping problem or am I worried about nothing. I've noticed a number of folks using smaller blower pulleys than this. Thanks for any insight.

As long as you have enought tension and have good belt wrap (belt has good contact with the pulley) you should be just fine, I don't see you running that blower hard enough to get too much slippage on that application anyway as long as it is all installed right.

Thanks for the help. So you think it probably won't matter whose pulley I get?

Like I said... as long as those things are good, you won't have to worry either way. A pulley is a pulley... it's a circle with ribs for the belt... some have come up with designs to "grip" the belt better than others, but in my opinion, if everything is right, you shouldn't have any problem unless you get radical with your boost.
