Product Description

The BBK 1553 Underdrive Pulley Kit is designed specifically for 5.0-L (302-ci) Small Block V8 Mustang models from 1986 through 1993. This three-piece pulley set reduces accessory drive drag by underdriving the crank, water pump, and alternator pulleys - freeing up 8-15 additional horsepower without affecting cooling or charging.

Manufactured from polished billet aluminum, each pulley is CNC-machined for precision and weight savings. The kit installs using factory drive belt and mounting hardware, making it a straightforward bolt-on upgrade that enhances throttle response, reduces rotational inertia, and improves engine efficiency.

Ideal for Fox Body Mustang enthusiasts looking for a cost-effective performance gain, BBK's 1553 kit delivers power, style, and durability backed by a one-year warranty. Fitment is specific to reverse-rotation serpentine 5.0-L Mustang engines; excludes other engines or accessory drive types.
