Got a second set of wheels to run my Bridgestone dueler 840's again. I can't afford the gas with the 285's.

Thank you 
I will be repainting both sets of my wheels with the plastidip. I'm happy I have two sets now because I can't afford the downtime of my truck being on jack stands for a day.
I'm also thinking about these down the road

Emelianenkov's Build Thread
Ordered replacement idler pulleys from rockauto after destroying them in NJ. It will be nice to get rid of the constant bearing whining and belt slippage

you can relieve some work done on that water pump pulley if you convert over to an electric fan setup. If you go that route though after experience with many single fan factory shroud setups I highly recommend a dual fan custom shroud setup. however when running without the clutch fan I saw significant performance gains.
if you can obtain the dimensions of the other pulleys you can A.) have a machine shop mill them for you. B.) correlate those dimensions on www.gates.com pulley catalogues speaking with one of there engineer associates is beneficial. but they have various material pulleys you can perhaps find what your looking for.

Great info! Thank you!
I'll be doing the electric fan eventually. More compact and I have some parts left over from my 427 cobra's cooling system
