It COULD but you lose the ratio multiplication. the stock crank hub is 6.5" the stock fan pulley is 5" a 1.3:1 drive ratio. The pulley I had made is a 6" and the MP90 has a 2.2" a 2.27 ratio. 1.3 X 2.27 = 3.54 final drive ratio.
It could be turned as high as 4.2:1 but I wanted to be in the peak boost/efficiency range where my motor runs most.
To get the same ratio off the crank, you need a 1.83" pulley and I dont thing there is such a thing for these blowers. The smaller the pulley, the more likely the belt slips due to less contact area.
OR you make a big ole adapter and crank pulley like most aftermarket systems use. but thats still a second belt and the fan doesnt leave much room. I may make just such a piece for the CR though, as it is really the only good way to do it.
