Well, it does say they are STU-V products and not original stuff.....

He listed a 156xxxxx part number, thought maybe Studebaker had Stu-V
make them.

I saw the part number but assumed that it is the 'high output'
replacement for the 156XXX part number.....

Since neither of us has a clue, but they are neat.

Could this be stuff from the Asa Hall collection?

Yep, it is.  I bought a Stude part almost a year ago from her.  Therefore, I
can see these H.O. pulleys being 'genuine' Studebaker.  I don't think Asa
would ever fill his garage with anything but.

If you read the ads closely you will note that these are STU-V
products.  Now the STU-V stuff was a real mixed bag, some of it came
from Paxton, some from SASCO(old), and some they made up themselves.
Very likely the pulleys came out of Paxton originally (SASCO(old)
stocked virtually no R3/R4 items).  But they were likely made by Paxton
or Stu-V to the original South bend prints.  Paxton items I ordered
generally came loose or in plastic bags, SASCO almost always used a
Studebaker box of some sort.  

A quick check of my STU-V catalog shows the complete high output pulley
set, plus fan and supercharger belts, priced at $65.  FWIW they show
rear brake drums at $6.50, aluminum timing gears at $10, R3/R4 head
gaskets @ $12/pr, and R3/R4 tachs for $25, among other interesting
items............

So is a 'STU-V' catalog Studebaker's version of Chrysler's 'Direct
Conncection','SRT' or Ford's 'SVO' high performance and racing
components catalog?

Oops, got an extra 'S' in there, did not notice that.  

No, STU-V was a completely independent outfit, say like Avanti
Northwest, or Bottjer Performance.  I do not recall the fellow's name
now, but he was out of National City, Cal. (just south of San Diego).
The STU-V name itself is rather old, originally it was an outfit dealing
in hop-up parts for '50's Stude's.  The name reappeared with the Avanti
stuff in around 1971.  My catalog is #2 and dates from 1972.

Studebaker's version of the Ford SVO catalog would be the Paxton
Products catalogue.  Comparing the STU-V with the Paxton, some parts
look like exact copies.  My, vague, recollection is that STU-V appeared
about the time Paxton was getting out of the Stude stuff. I think he
bought a lot of the surplus from Paxton.

Yes, that's it.  I remembered the 'Chris' part, but just could not
remember his last name.  I probably last talked to him in the mid '70's,
some 30 years ago now I guess.  Dunno whatever happened to him or his
stock of parts.

Check the sellers hometown. Could this be Asa Hall's widow?
