Welcome to the site

Guess your already aware that these are reproduced.

But of course you might be looking for an original or one, possibly, at a lower price. Good luck with your search  :)

The repros are heavier because they are made out of billet steel unlike original  which is not . Other then that they are identical. Of course you can not tell once installed .

Isn't there also the lack of the seam where on the two piece original section joined. On the repo - at least on the others made out of one piece billet there is just a machine edge rather than steel over steel. Small detail but still a difference if made by the same guy/company for their reproductions

I have been lookin at dead nuts on but they have been unavailable for a while now. Created ad to see if anyone on the site may know of one for sale or have one in their personal inventory looking to sale.

That seam detail on originals can only be seen from the back side of the pulley which of course is impossible to be seen once installed. The thin front side seam is filled in with paint and can't be seen.
