Possible Underdrive Pulleys Reply #1 – August 07, 2006, 07:16:27 AM I'd look for a set for a mustang as you probably wont find them for a t-bird/cougaredit: was wrong look on http://www.summitracing.com they have a few sets to choose from but they are the same part numbers as the mustang Quote Selected

When I bought my Cougar it had a set on it and if I sat in a parking lot too long with the engine running, vent blower running, and the radio on (no amp or anything like that). The battery would be dead within 25min or so. Quote Selected

overdriven alternator? Reply #6 – August 08, 2006, 05:07:56 AM Is there a way to underdrive all of the accessories except the alternator, or does it have to work all together? Quote Selected
