For why you want this pulley, read the "Cooling the Sunbeam Tiger" paper by Tiger Tom and Chuck King.

Unfortunately a common Ford pulley will not fit the Tiger, and the Fairmont pulley is very difficult to find today. If you are lucky enough to find a Fairmont pulley, you will find that it is not only expensive, but an ugly 2 or 3 sheave design. Effective as it is, I just did not like the ugly Fairmont pulley on my car, was unable to find an aftermarket alternative, so I set out to make these.
This pulley is CNC machined from a single billet of 6061 T-6 aluminium. With the Tiger specific 1" centre hole, and proper backspacing it is a direct replacement for the stock pulley. Supplied in as machined condition, so you can use as is, or polish, paint, or powdercoat as you prefer.
I have spent 45 years with my eyes glued to the temperature gauge every time I got stuck in traffic and at lights. I tried all the common mods set out out in the referenced paper, and this pulley helped the most in solving my Tigers overheating issues.
A great stealth mod, and most importantly it works and looks great!
