Those don't look too bad. Of course I like the nice shiny ones that Summit sells a little more That link you posted had a misrepresentation too, says they

Judging from the web address you sent for that page: f150asp.htm, would lead me to think that they were ASP pulleys, same manufacturer that Troyer uses. May or may not be the exact same kit. I also usually try to do a little digging, especially with part of my business being web design/programming I almost always check the company's website. Would leave me a little leary with a company who has virtually no website, just a splash page http://www.motoblue.com

Not trying to dog those pulleys, heck they might be better than Summit's just offering my humble opinion.

I think they(carsuff) might be imports and/or poor quality metal and/or seconds(might not meet specs). As for rpm outlet do a search for them on the better business bureau, mustang forums, and ford truck forums. Thats just my opinion in a post, take it or leave it.

well for RPM Outlet, I can say they have the worst customer service in the world. It took me two days to get a hold of anyone, then they can't tell me where my CAI is becasue it was shipped from the warehouse. Oh well you live and learn.

Just to let you guys know. From my research that there are differences between the 96.5-04h and the 04-08. Like everyone knows they went from a 2v to a 3v head and they also changed the water pump housing. This is the big deal when looking @ or ordering ud pulleys.

They also used a 8 rib belt I believe until '03, After that it went to a 6 rib belt. If You read Troyers description it kinda explains what to look for. I know with the Troyer pulleys, You have to run a 1" shorter serp belt.

Well Summit FINALLY got me my correct set of UD Pulley's, came UPS yesterday. However they sent me the wrong Serpentine belt...AGAIN.

Talked them into overnighting me the correct one at no charge, should be installing Saturday morning if all goes well and I kick this flu.

Bill, I'll get you that Product # when I get back to the house. The kit from summit is $134 +tax
