Are you going old school or are you going to fuel inject it? I am sure you are aware of the issues of that ethanol mixed fuel and carburetors. Closest place to me that sells old school gas is 30 miles one way.

2 car family here.
My wife drives more than I do - she's in a 2020 Honda Pilot.
I'm in her hand-me-down - 2006 BMW X-5 4.4 litre - runs like a song

I love the tag we are required to put on the engine. Not for use in pollution controlled vehicles.

I used to make custom vehicle pulleys till the recession of 2008 killed off my customer base. What type of aluminum are they made from? 7075 can corrode easily if exposed to moisture, 6061 holds up better cosmetically but is not as durable. If you are going to put a decent amount of mileage on it I would consider hard anodize. You can get it in a host of colors except for clear, clear anodize turns the parts a light grey. There used to be a lot of low quality pulleys on the market due to the limousine and custom car boom pre 2008. Did you check them for runout and alignment? When I designed kits
I used straight edges and lasers to insure proper fit.
