need a machinist real fast

[lit666]

I need a pulley ground down 4.12 MM for my 8 rib conversion. Anyone know of any that can get the job done today.

[Breecher_7]

What part of the pulley would have to be "ground down". Monday at the earliest here....

[lit666]

the shaft on the back side needs to be taken down 4.12 MM on the back side of the 8 rib pulley to match the 6 rib

So the area where the shaft or bolt goes through needs to be shortened 0.1622 inches? Pulley aluminum? Monday at the earliest, but I can get this done for you.

[lit666]

yeah thats the part that I need to shorten. Not sure what it's made of. Unless I can find something earlier then Monday it is. Skeeter is out of town all next week and I'd like to get it done before then.

[Breecher_7]

just let me know.

that little bit and you can't just sand it down by hand? or even useing a palm sander?

[lit666]

I was told that taking a belt sander or something to it would not be a good idea since it really needs to be perfect.

[Car Guy]

For that you are going to want to machine it, and any other 'method' would cause you more issues than the one you have now.....

Your joking right? :stare

Fan of bailing wire and duct tape are you? :rolf

If for some reason tony can't I can Chris. Have access to a lathe and it shouldn't be hard to face that little bit off for you

My thoughts exactly, lathe then surface grind...... Would take 10 mins...

I'm 7/8 hillbilly. I'd key it up in a drillpress or my wood lathe.

no not joking and not a fan of bailing wire and duct tape either...

it just seems so small that i would think it wouldn't be THAT BIG of a deal i guess i was wrong :flipoff2:

:rolf Belt alignment isnt that big of a deal? Mabey if you like to tear up $50+ 8 rib serp belts for fun. But thats ok, make me out to be the asshole because you had a stupid idea. :thumbsup

[Reverend Cooper]

chris why cant you space the other pullies out a bit,otherwise i would cut it down with wicked or breecher

[Cryptic]

or just buy the right parts to begin with :goof

[Reverend Cooper]

they dont make specific kits for my car,there was alot of r&d done to make it work with my setup with the pulley manufacturer. I'm not sure whey chris is having a issue tho other then he has a aftercooled version and maybe the reg. pullies from the manuf. are not fitting right

Im 50% Hillbilly and 50% White Trash.....

Honestly doesnt matter how true the rear machined surface is
as the square cut shaft and bore center of the pulley dictate
the belt tracking, cut/grind/polish 4.120 mm and be done with it.
