Oops, the pic I meant to post is the one below, I was in a hurry and looking for one where the engine was cleaned after I got rid of the valve cover leaks and you can actually see the belt... forgot it had the non-standard pulley in this pic.
No noses too out of joint that I did not use a Saab part, I hope.
I did buy a Saab pulley (third replacement on this car), it was pretty much the same as the last two, made in Hungary, with that non-standard bearing that tends to fail. Dean has posted why it happens. I got a bit frustrated when I saw it... decided to use a pulley with a replacable bearing (2603-type), slightly larger than oem, billet aluminum, bearing shoulder plus two washers to fit the M8-125 pitch bolt... almost certainly overkill on this car... around $40 plus shipping from wazeepulleys.com
The bearing is a standard size, held in by a snap ring, and costs between $3 and $5, a couple bucks more for the hi-temp version. Used to be common to do this on muscle cars and street rods, not really anything new. Aside from wazeepulleys.com, you can probably find a match at your local speed shop.
This one is for a Mustang, and not a perfect fit, I had to have it machined down about 3mm to fit, but the guy who sold it to me said me he has some that are the correct 26mm width (sized for a 'vette, I think).
