I am curious if anyone has tried an underdrive pulley setup on the 2.5l engine? I have been searching through the forums but I have not found anything specific to the engine. Esslinger Engineering produces one that I think would work, but it is $75 right now. So if there are alternatives that would be awesome.
I am also curious if a larger alternator would be necessary for that setup to maintain proper electrical current? I already have plans to upgrade to a 130 amp alternator, especially if I opt for an electric cooling fan and interested in the Volvo EPAS conversion.
My main goal for the truck is to squeeze a little better fuel efficiency out of the stock engine.
