Better with a correct pulley that fits the same belt profile for the other pulleys, and yes, smaller diameter if you can find one.  Blip the throttle when starting like most people do automatically and it should start to charge.

"One Wire" alternators are modified and require a higher RPM to begin charging. The normal wiring for those GM alternators requires two wires (or three depending on how you look at it).

So maybe I should find a regular 3 wire alternator? I'll do some research as to how these units work exactly.
