Dahhmmm, Are you serious? Almost 4.5 grand for polished? Thats more than a lot of people paid for an LS series engine. Looks nice, but I wont be getting one.

In fairness the kit is more than just the pullies. I think it comes with stuff like the Alternator, compressor, water pump and I paid over $400 for my ATI dampner.

I imagine the pricing is in line with something like a vintage air front runner system.

I definitely can't afford it (can't afford any of the other systems listed either ), but IMO the price doesn't seem out of line with the others for what it is.
