Description
Product Overview
The Moroso Pulley (Model 64700) is a high‑grade, lightweight aluminum crankshaft pulley engineered for performance‑focused automotive applications. Precision‑machined from premium aluminum castings, the pulley delivers a perfect balance of strength and reduced mass, which helps lower rotating inertia and improve engine response. Its extra‑deep belt grooves are specifically designed to maintain belt tension and prevent slippage during rapid engine speed changes, ensuring consistent power delivery to the fan, water pump, and alternator. Weighing just 1.98 pounds, this component replaces the OEM part number 64700 and meets all original specifications while offering a noticeable performance edge.
Usage
Designed for both street and track environments, the Moroso pulley excels in scenarios where engine speed variability is frequent. Whether you are navigating city traffic with frequent stop‑and‑go, tackling winding mountain roads, or pushing the limits on a race track, the deep‑groove design provides reliable belt engagement. The reduced pulley diameter subtly slows accessory speeds, reducing parasitic drag and allowing the engine to breathe more freely, which translates to marginal gains in horsepower and fuel efficiency. This makes the pulley an excellent upgrade for enthusiasts, professional racers, and daily drivers who demand dependable performance.

FAQ
Is this pulley compatible with my vehicle?
The Moroso 64700 pulley is designed to replace the OEM crankshaft pulley on a wide range of vehicles that originally use part number 64700. Verify your vehicle’s service manual or consult a qualified mechanic to confirm compatibility.
Will installing this pulley affect my engine’s warranty?
Because the pulley is an exact OEM replacement and meets all original specifications, it typically does not void the manufacturer’s warranty. However, it is advisable to check your warranty terms or speak with your dealer before installation.
Do I need special tools to install the pulley?
Installation requires standard automotive tools such as a torque wrench, pulley holder, and a belt tensioner. Following the torque specifications in the service manual ensures proper fit and longevity.
How does the reduced diameter improve performance?
A smaller pulley diameter reduces the speed of accessories like the fan and water pump, decreasing parasitic drag on the engine. This allows more of the engine’s power to be directed to the drivetrain, resulting in modest gains in horsepower and fuel efficiency.
What maintenance is required for the aluminum pulley?
The aluminum construction is corrosion‑resistant and requires no special maintenance beyond regular belt inspections. Ensure the belt remains properly tensioned and replace it according to the manufacturer’s service interval.
