| I decided to install my ATI pulley onto my Z the other day. Member jaku has never done anything like this, so I called him to come on over and help me out/see how this is done. Overall, the install went great, and it is a great fitting part. First off, I had to remove the UR pulley that I already had on my car. Sadly, I had already dropped the tranny a couple days before, so breaking the crank bolt loose without being able to use the tranny to hold the flywheel in place would be tricky. Nothing that me, a screwdriver, and a little force can't do haha. Basically, I used a screw driver between the flywheel teeth and the iron engine block to hold the fly wheel in place. Had to pull down pretty hard to keep it in place while jake broke the 150ftlb bolt loose though.

 Some close ups of the ATI pulley
 UR pulley and ATI pulley side by side.
 Stock pulley which has been in my garage for years just for weight comparison.
 This is a picture I took after just starting to tighen the pulley on. I did this to make sure that the pulley was fully lined up on the woodruff (sp?) key. Hate to mess things up by tightening it on some when it isn't properly lined up! Looks good so far! =)
 ATI pulley installed. The pulley is not all the way set on b/c I figured that without the tranny in place, it would be silly to try and torque the bolt and pulley down all the way. I will have to wait a week untill I reinstall the tranny so I can get to completely finishing up this pulley install.
 Like I said, the install went great, and the fitment is DEAD on. The 0 timing mark also looked to be in the right spot visually when comparing with the UR and stock pulley side by side which I assumed it would be. Overall, I'm really happy with this product, and am glad to have it on my car.
Thanks,
Mike
