You do not want to slow your fan speed down at all if possible.The only reason for running a power pulley is if your running a dry sump pump,which a regular pulley will not clear and some run them just for the extra few pony's.Ive never ran a power pulley until i went to a dry sump set up. Tim at Southern buggy's can set you up with 1 of those trick Alt. pulleys.

You have to have a small crank pulley to run a dry sump and inturn you have to run a small alt. pulley to get your fan back up to speed.
