A pulley swap on our 03-04 Cobra is pretty straight forward. There’s a lot of options when it comes to auxiliary idlers and pulley bridge idlers and any replacement over the stockers is a step in the right direction. The guys at METCO Motorsports make some really high end stuff. I wanted to change up the looks on my car since I had some older, outdated pulleys. Not only do the METCO pulleys look great, but there also built with high regards to quality. Here’s a few pics of the new METCO's on my car.

Here is the old Billetflow Aux idler and the new METCO piece. HUGE improvement!

Yep, Metco's idlers are the best available (quality and appearance) IMO. They really looks much nice, Jon, than your old Billetflow setup. Good looking engine bay by the way. :)

Metco stuff is what I run and they are a great bunch of folks. I stay about 5 minutes from their shop, and I see them at the somewhat local car shows.

I went with the single bearing metco's. Anything was an improvement over what I had on there originally. Buy a set, there worth the money!

No need to remove the coolant tank. The lower pulley next to the crank pulley is easier to remove/install from the bottom. I had all 4 pulleys removed and replaced in 30min. Enjoy the METCO's. There really really nice!
