Someone on the Fly Rotary list suggested these about a month ago. (If I could remember who it was I would give him credit for a great idea.) It took me this long to locate two and get them machined. They are from a Honda Prelude. I think they call it the H22, or something like that. Note though that they are stock POWER STEERING PULLEYS, not alternator pulleys. The shaft size is the same as the Geo alternator, but there are teeth partway through the hole that need to be removed on a lathe. I'm sure there is enough material there to open them up to fit the Mazda alternator if that's what you are using. Also, the offset is approx. 1/8" different, so some spacers will be required to get things back in alignment. The Prelude p/s pulley is 4" dia. but if you want one that is 4.5", use the Integra p/s pulley instead. It looks the same as the Prelude pulley, but just 1/2" larger.
