OK, I went ahead and bought it. My wife's limited me to the occasional $50 purchase for the car.... until we get the insurance check for her car. Then I'm allowed to go crazy.
Just looking at it, it's very nicely machined. Fits in the palm of my hand. I'll do a size/weight comparison this weekend. He's in Florida, so it was a really quick turn around. Not sure if I'm going to install, I'm still toying with the idea of using it as a paper weight at work. LOL
On a side note, he did send a few kitkat mini's with it. Guess he wanted to sweeten the deal... sorry, couldn't resist.

rotary shaped alternator pulley
weight: 107 grams -OR- 3.75 ounces
diameter: 2.5 (ish) inches
I say 2.5(ish) because I'm measuing out to the lip, not the surface where the belt would be making contact with the pulley. I'll guestimate that the contact surface diameter is 2 3/8.
**Edit***
Just ran outside the width of the OEM alternator pulley is right around 2.25 inches, lip to lip. Subtract the width of the belt (times 2) and that's the diameter of the contact surface.
So the rotary pulley is slightly larger. Hrmm, what effect would this have? Also, anyone know the weight of the stock alternator pulley? cortc?
