i own a fwd and rwd and I can tell you that besides the clutch fan, the pulleys are the exact same so you don't need one specifically for the fwd

Actually they are different. The RWD hole is a tad bigger then the FWD pullies hole.

A while back we had A BUNCH of members who tried to use RWD pulley's on FWD pumps and I think every member ruined the pump. The difference is enough that it kills the bearings on the pump and causes it to fail.

If you're using a RWD pully, you need to use the pump off of a CA18ET from an S12, otherwise, if you use the FWD pump, you've GOT to use the FWD pully.
