Default underdrive pullie?

from what i gather it reduces power to accessories such as air con etc...is a 10% underdrive pulley going to make any kind of diference on the street without effecting reliability or durability? has anyone ever done it to a ford 6 is it worth it?

Many people have asked about an underdrive for the AU 6 on here over the past few years but to my knowledge no one as actually had one fitted to report about their experiences with it, if one even exists.

the link above ross tuffbond , he will let you know if he makes them , if he doesn't i doubt anyone will , he is the only one whom makes alloy pulley systems for the US ricer market. smart bloke , im sure if there was a big enough interest for AU stuff he could nock em up.
