willwren,

Thanks for the follow up. Hopefully, he will get better soon.

I sure hope I can find another source for that pulley if he decides to close the store for good.

Well, I did receive the pulley from

http://www.bluetonguemotorsports.com

It seems they make them on a made to order basis. So it takes a few weeks,
They seem to do " production " runs on a monthly or bi-weekly basis.
Anyway, all is well. I'm suprised these things are so rare and hard to find.

Normally they're very easy to get. We used to have another company making them too, but we blacklisted them as a vendor, and they closed their doors soon after. I'm not sure I like the sound of the 2.3" pulley. It'll be interesting to see how much boost you gain.

2.55". Most of us go to the 2.2" from there. 92 and 93 are the same.

94/95 are 2.85 stock, and generally step down to the 2.55" stock 92/93 pulley.

Anymore word on a pulley source? I sold my 2.2" pulley a few months ago and now I want to re-pulley the car. I saw blue-tounge'* 2.3" and jlathem had stated that they make them on a made to order basis? I wonder if I could ask for a 2.2" pulley made to order.. Pulleyboys is still down :(

No word from Brian at PB yet. I'll check on him later today. In the meantime, I'd wait for word on PB. 2.3" just isn't 'there' if you know what I mean?

I spoke ( e-mail ) with the guy yesterday at Bluetooth. They still have 1 on hand.
He explained they do it in production " runs " .So as far as I can tell, they seem to
get a few folks that are interested and somebody machines them out for them.

Well I'd like a 2.2" pulley either way. A friend of mine is taking a machining class at a nearby university and he offered to make one for me, but we'll see how that goes. It'd take some work to make the keyway an exact fit.. Blue Tounge'* prices are cheaper by about $15, but I'd have to wait and see if they could make a 2.2" also.

Yeah, I know. I wanted a 2.2 also. I searched for about a week on the net after I got the information on here about Bluetooth. I wonder how much that .1 really matters ?

If you ever do find a 2.2 let us know.
