Seriously good work on the engine Joel. I wanted to use metal pulleys on my Ardun engine but all I had was the R&M of M kit. What are you using for belts? Mine came in the R&M kit but I have found where to get them. This engine looks really good Joel.

They sell bags with 100s of them for braids.

Thanks Dennis! I will be snagging some of these I believe, they just looked like a cool, easy way to dress up those engine pulleys. At least for a rookie like me anyways!

They work really good Tom and look really good. I like to use them I just always forget I have them until I'm done with the car and it is too late.

thanks guys. Not Playdoh, Tom. Silly putty. That gooey stuff that comes in those egg shaped containers. Hey, did you know you can make a quickie reusable mold from Silly Putty? I read about it and made some carburetors from it and it worked. Press your part in the SP, take it out and fill the cavity with 5 min epoxy and put it in the freezer and freeze it. Take it out after it is frozen and let it thaw and the part will pop right out. The putty is reusable also.
