I am going to run my PS pump off the crank hub with the hub pulley from a later engine so I won't need the stock water pump double pulley which also ran the PS pump and alternator. Which later one is preferable, I see two:

Pulley 130mm 11511706781
Pulley 144mm 11511271423

Would the 144 be better because it would make the water pump spin faster?

UMMMM...
Not only does the smaller pulley spin your pump faster- it is desirable because it keeps your pulley from contacting your lower radiator hose at the top.

How about a 102mm one? It seems to fit on the water pump. Too much gearing or even better low speed flow? I have a 130mm on the way also.
