I've had several people ask me about this item. Here's how it reads:
"TECH BULLETIN
<snip>
4) Street Prepared: the allowance in Section 14.10.U for the use of alternate
pulleys does permit pulleys of different materials from those of the
original."
I don't see a "not" in between "does" and "permit"; therefore pulleys made of
alternate materials are perfectly legal for Street Prepared vehicles. This
was
in response to a member question. The words "same type" refer only to the
original belt/pulley configuration, i.e. V-belt or serpentine, not the
materials
used to make the pulley itself.
