Need advise on lighthened pulley effects
My car has a squeeling sound coming from the pulley at low RPMs which is really irritating.
Both crank and alternator pulleys have been changed to Summit lighthened pulleys for around 2yrs. Mechanic has changed new belt and pulley bearings, tighthend the belt and applied grease but noise still persist. He has advised me to change back to stock pulleys. Problem is I don't have the stock alternator pulley anymore.
I haven't checked the price of the stock alternator pulley yet, was told by mechanic that Honda only sells the whole alternator. So kind of turned off with this option, or was he pulling my leg that Honda does not sell the alternator pulley seperately?
I was hoping to maintain a lighthened pulley as I don't want to lose it's advantages over stock and came up with an excuse, figured the Summit pulley could have been worn? Should I get the UR crank and alternator pulley? Or Mytheology's crank pulley?
Anybody who has the stock alternator pulley and wishes to sell me can PM me.

Does your aftermarket crank pulley have a harmonic balancer in it? If not I would switch that back. I've had accessory pullies for years with no problems but I won't mess with the crank pulley.

The aftermarket 1 does not come with harmonic balancer.
