Today i want all your advice, I want to change the crankshaft accessory pulley, my original separated on the rubber, at a very inconvenient time, did a quick fix with a mig welder, i'm sure it is out of balance, so now the question is do i get a original heavy two part 5pk pulley, or go for a lightweight, do i low parasitic draw, does it affect the crankshaft main bearings, do i use a 3pk 4pk 5pk 6pk belt, plan to run a 80 amp alternator and a power steering pump, i have light weight aluminium two piece 3pk pulley from a renault, or a one piece xu5 pressed steel pulley 6pk, or get a bullet aluminium one made in factory size for the xu9j4.

I apologise to all the followers of this build, i've been sick the past couple of days and is not over with, on the build side i've decided to use this pulley it come out of a 94 405 1.6i but is seems to have been changed, it is little lighter then the original and is one piece, no rubber damper, the original mi16 has failed 3 times on me, this one can't fail.
