All the ones that had % differences stated 25% reduction in crankshaft pulley size. I didn't see any for a 97 that was greater than this.
Prices range from $70 - $110.
eBay also has some listed for about $40
you won't find anything more than 25%, on the 94-98 models, any more than that, and you'll have charging/overheating problems.

Like I said before, I'm new to this game so any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
There isn't much difference. You can try to lose some weight off the front end by choosing the lightest pulleys, but they're all 25%, so they will perform about the same.

In an earlier reply, it was suggested to call to place the order rather than order online.
Is the customer service at one place better than any other?
I always call.
the websites often don't have up to date information, and are outsourced in a lot of cases.
Unless it's a BIG wholesaler/retailer with computerized tracking and control, stay away from ordering online and stick to the telephone. Then double check.

vmptuning.com is also a good place to do business with. You can buy complete kits or pulleys and belts separate. They have very good customer service, and if you ever want to tune your car, Justin is the man!
$135 for the crank, water pump, alternator pulley and belt !!!
Look for my new thread on bigger throttle bodies........
That won't fit on your car. That's a package for 1999+ vehicles.

I see RPM Outlet is selling them from Ford Racing, but will I need to buy new gears or anything else?
I have one -it's ok, but the better ones have been re-released by Detroit Locker and Auburn.
Of all available, I'd have picked up an Auburn Diff, if it was available when I got mine 3 years ago.
Gears would probably do you very well.

You didn't need to buy any other parts after you put in the differential??
The installer should have the installation materials, -shims, gear oil, friction modifier (if applicable) etc.,
While you have it off, you may want to throw on a brace, but it's not necessary.
