Ditto. I catch myself "cruising" in 4th at 60 to 65 mph (and other times I do it on purpose, waiting for a passing opportunity...) I never could do that with the stock pulley.

Any hp change (+ or -) is not enough to notice.

I think it's a good combo with the flywheel and clutch mods, esp.

But I'm no Warmonger, either. Just that the racing and engine building experts that I've read say that the flywheel/clutch is a good place to shave weight, but that the harmonic damper isn't. Some cases where adding weight/damping to the HD allows for increased hp. (I'm not saying the DMD will add power, though.)
