serpentine belt system things.

I have an AC compressor but no p/s so would I be able to use the p/s pulley for the AC?

 

mo, i have some crank pullys, an alt pully, and water pump pullies that should work for you. we just need to change the pully/clutch on the ac to a serpentine pully. i think i have an edelbrock water pump too that is reverse rotation. all you should need is the alt bracket. for that you could use a stock one from a mustang, or you can get a march one like used in the pics above.

 

thanks Bryant! I'll work on getting alt bracket . . . I am doing those engine classes starting next week but Tue afternoon I'll swing by if that's ok.

 

ill be there.

 

Yes it is absolutely worth some power. Check out this company www.jonesreacingproducts.com . When I was into building cooling systems full time we used a lot of there stuff and that question came up. So one day we replaced one of there employees standard GM truck v-belts systems with one of there multi-belt serp. systems and it raised the idle rpm by 700rpms! The reason is that it take 45% less belt tension to spin the system with out slipage. If you use one of thier radius tooth kits it's even more.
