Just installed a Metco lower pulley and noticed that it is not centered. I was under the impression that they were self-centering. Anyone have any insight on this?

Good For You!!! You will be happy with that lower set up!! I had mine installed by Deans Performance so I dont know anything about the centering aspect but I am sure that someone on here will know!!
Good Luck!!

like a locator that sits inside the other pulley..
The main inside hub that comes with the kit and mounts too the crank does not center itself on the crank pulley. It mounts flat and parallel like it should but when you start the motor you can see it moves a like a cam, loping. Before I did this I read a lot of posts and somewhere one said (can't find it now) that you need to be careful and ease this hub on because it fits snug on the inside lip of the crank pulley. Mine just went on plus had lots of play as well. So that's what I mean by self centering, Or do you have to center it yourself.
This shouldn't be necessary.I got it, took a while but I'm at about .0005 runout right now. That's pretty good for a 8"+ dia. ring. It was at .0223 when I checked it after I first put it on.:headbang::headbang::headbang:
NOW IT"S TIME TO PLAY
Looks like Metco is getting pretty sloppy.
The hub should fit tight enough to locate itself on the crank.
