Honestly? Because those are the parts I had when I put this whole thing together. I need a smaller drive pully or a bigger alternator pulley to slow it down some. That said, it makes 14 volts at idle which I really like, lol. Might not be the best for performance but great for peace of mind. I'll not be flaming out anytime soon.
