[VB] redux: Porsche Pulley

[claralw at aol.com]

Actually the smaller gen pulley does make the engine run too cold in cold weather.
Even with the thermostat in place.
Give it a try next winter.  
 Personally I think it is too cold when the oil temps maybe reach 170 when freeway driving for an hour, then drop when I get off the freeway. 
 

When it is 90 F out I think it will be okay to run the small pulley.

The   Porsche pulley is smaller, which mean the fan runs faster and blows more   air.

At hot weather this could be good.   But not when it is   cold.
don't get rid of the stock pulley and belt.  
When the   weather cools down in the fall you will want to change back, or the engine can   be damaged by running too cold.
