Underdrive pulleys

I have been all over the websites and can't find an answer. Will I be sorry if I install the March underdrive set in my 302 with 5spd I use it strictly for cruising. No stump jumping or high revs.

Aftermarket pullies are a waste for trucks and SUVs. If you do a search in this forum, you will see what I mean. Its been talked about many times.

There is more to it. Are the pulley's factory size, just aluminum? Or are you running a smaller crank pulley? I had a friend that had a mustang with a pulley set, and every time he put on his a/c the car would stall. He would have to rev the motor at lights with the air on. March pulleys should have a tech line, give them a call.

I would suggest against any aluminum pulleys cause they wear down extremly fast and the rubber belt accualy eats away at the metal.
