The sides of the pulley near the shaft need to be the same as the stock pulley. Just measure and copy. The kaw pulley is hardened and you will need to take small cuts and sharpen your tool bit often, or use a grinder as it turns on the lathe, and finish with a pass with a cutting bit to true it up. You can cut the dia. of both side flanges down to the height of the belt. Easiest to do on a lathe, then round the tops off with a file. While it is chucked up, smooth off the peening on the sides A LITTLE, don't get carried away on the sides or the flanges can loosen up or fall off. (THAT WOULD BE BAD) You will still need to grind the case a small amount with a hand grinder, fit the cut-down pulley by hand and you will see where. Don't put the belt on or tighten it down till you are sure it clears everything. All and all pretty easy,IF, you have access to a lathe.
