They came in the email yesterday. I do not have them mounted yet, but will get it "hooked up" this weekend

I am not 100% sure why but when I added power steering the groove for the belt sits approximately 1/2 inch more forward of the 2 grooves that are on every other accessory (crank, h2o, alt) that I have. So these add on pulleys give me a 3rd groove that hopefully aligns with the power steering. The only thing I can think of is that my power steering is from a 73 up non integrated head and maybe was intended to run on a 3rd groove.

Thanks, John

I got the "add on" pulleys installed this weekend. Yes, they give me the 3rd groove that I needed to get the power steering pump aligned. I have everything installed but ran out of time (because of all the other projects) to finish. I have to switch out the manual steering box for a power and then add fluid, tighten the belt and then I should be able to cruise with 1 finger. LOL

The ironic thing is that I found 2 more sets of these "add on" pulleys this weekend at the pick a part. They were on 70's Novas and I scooped them up. These cars definately were not there when I started my search. One had the integrated head but the other had the older style so I grabbed all of the brackets (AC, power steering, Alt) off of that one.

Thanks, John

I'm glad you got it figured out!

Thanks for the help with the part numbers and information on these pulleys.

This is how mine is sitting right now.

I guess I could run a 2nd belt (on that middle groove) but it would just be a exact repeat of the one that is already going to the alternator.

Thanks, John

You don't need to have a belt on the second groove with the way yours went together. I had to add the 2 groove alternator pulley because my power steering belt interfered with the nut on the original single groove alternator pulley.
