[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 193528, member: 540940"] Trix - you're contradicting yourself correct. correct again. This is confusing - if the pulley is larger, the speed of the alt shaft will be reduced at a given rpm vs. the speed of the shaft with the standard pulley = less current being produced by the alt = less hp being bled from the crank. (Law of conservation of energy) Trix - this is the point of under-drive pulleys - it's a true statement. Under drive pulleys are oversized so they revolve fewer times per revolution vs. a standard sized pulley - any component with an under-drive pulley would be doing less work than with the standard sized pulley resulting in less hp being drained off the crank. It will absorb less power and put out less power - again, conservation of energy. Right. [/QUOTE]
