Default Crank Pulley Advice

Just ordered an Unorthodox Crank Pulley from a member on here and looking for some advice. While Im down their I'm going to go ahead and change the Front main seal. Should I just change out my belts while doing this or is that not necessary? Any good places or brands someone would recommend or just go OEM? Please list sites...

Research was done before post which helped me decide to switch out the seal but I couldn't find any advice for the belts.

Thanks to all.

You would need new belts. I forgot what the belt numbers were, but your local automotive store can help too. Tell them the thickness, length, and number of ribs of the belt.
Most of the time if you're ordering new pulleys, they come with instructions on what belt to use. Even the eBay ones.

Have you had any experience with Throttle Body Pulleys Importluv?
I know they will delete my cruise control but Ive never used it anyways.

I wouldnt spend on that POS.
I never used it, never saw it in person.
All it does is keep the throttle cable tight from my understanding
If you want quick throttle response, spend it on a 1 piece aluminum drive shaft.
It's guaranteed to work.

Yea I have never heard of anyone using it before.
I was going to order my belts and the front seal online but most places specify the OEM belts wont fit an aftermarket crank pulley. Know the size needed to fit the pulley so I can go ahead and order it. I got the pulley from a private seller so more than likely it dosnt have the instructions.
Im going to do the driveshaft after installing my pulley, belts, and seals. Going to change out most of gaskets. New plugs and plug wires. Going to flush out the coolant and most fluids. Damn 60k rolled in lol.

fyi, the agency power throttle body pulleys are smaller, thus effectively opening the throttle body a bit faster/larger at a less percentage of pedal pressure. you likely won't feel much if anything, and the price is kinda steep.

and it will allow you to keep cruise control. you have to separate the 2 pulleys and install the agency power pulley first, then use the factory spacer (or make one) and put the cruise pulley on. it does work.

so dan, it reduces the sagging in the throttle cable, and traveling distance to achieve full throttle.

Reducing the sag of the throttle cable can be done by adjusting the screw at the end of the throttle cable, or custom make a bracket for where the throttle cable end would sit further away from the T.B.
As far as reducing the traveling distance that someone has to reach full throttle, well, I guess purchasing this adapter is the best/less time consuming/cheaper route to go.
This would be the very last "modification" i would put on my project car since it's not a big gain
