alta classic VS alta 2.0

Whats the difference between the alta classic parts and the alta 2.0, do they offer more performance or at they just "new" classic parts. Is there any reason to get 2.0 parts vs classic parts?

Depends! If we are talking about the air intake systems the choice is essentially color only. Silver or black. Take your pick!

On the S/C pulley the differences are more substantial. The v2.0 is lighter weight, grabs the belt better, and is able to hold the shaft of the S/C FAR better than the classic style. Most clients prefer this newer pulley due to the heightened technical specs.

The classic is tried and true design. ALTA originated this style of pulley and it has been copied, over and over and over. So considering that imitation is the ultimate form of flattery, consider me FLATTERED. Great part, and a worthwhile option.

Either way you CAN'T go wrong! Let me know if I can help in anyway on your order, or pre-purchase questions, on or off forum.

Thanks again and have a great weekend!
