Students are in a "pulley jam"...HELP!
 
1 Attachment(s)
Was wondering if any of you that have upgraded to factory ac/ps may have a matching set of JUST water pump and balancer puleys, and alternator bracket for a small block that you would be willing to part with in the very near future!... We are trying to get the kids' 383's that we built on our run stand and fire off finally. They competed (and placed) with them at the MN state fair last August and waited to fire them off till beginning of this school year. All I have is ps and AC pulleys in my backyard out of my parts trucks and itd be nice to have the simpler system to keep with the run stand and use them for future kid builds! IN a perfect world, I 'm thinking a set from a 73-77 c10 with power nothing may lend itself the best. Any help is appreciated!

I have a set of billet water pump, crank and alternator pulleys with bracket for alternator. They are dull from storage but could likely get a shine in them again. They were on a 70 El Camino when I swapped it to a serpentine setup a few years ago. I’ll grab some pictures for you later this evening.

Oddly enough, on Friday I’ll be taking a leisurely (and hopefully dry and warmer) motorcycle ride from Fargo to Duluth and could “swing thru” Alex to drop them off if they’ll work for your students.

Here are some pictures of the setup. Their storage spot got damp at some time so there is more surface corrosion than I remembered. Being thick aluminum they should polish up decent with some elbow grease.

Another surprise to me is that there is also a set of power steering brackets and a matching pulley. It can also be run without the power steering (for run stand use).

Just let me know if these will work and I’m happy to donate them to the school. High School Auto Body was one of my favorite classes and through a winding path helped me land in my current occupation (Fleet / Heavy Equipment Mechanic) building hot rods on the side.
