Its not a vernier pulley.... thats just a toothed water pump/alternator drive belt kit. Really not needed... Sorry were you trying to drum up some interest in your earlier post?

Vernier pulleys are for the camshaft...

The difference between the kent and piper ones is that the piper ones are ali whereas the ken ones are steel if i remember rightly.

In reality it makes little difference.

all the piper ones seem to be alloy for the likes of a pinto, but kent have an alloy or a cheaper steel one

I've got a cheaper steel kent one for my pinto, even though I've got a piper cam
