GA, thanks again for info., that Bill Dowry brkt. would certainly solve my return fitting problem, but looks like only one bolt holes pump at the bottom versus two via smog or Mark's brkt., If I'm reading that right, don't like that idea. Also how do you get in contact with either Bill Dowry or...

Now their's a fellow with a serious creative genius disorder.

Thanks GA. That's the setup I want. From the looks of your picture, you have done a lot of neat stuff to your cruiser, is it all highlighted in a Build post?

GA- that would be swell, if you could come up with the source for your pulley setup. Thanks, Denny.

Think I've got it, moved the pump to the far right in Mark's brkt, have the skinny dual groove pulley on and almost flush with shaft and pump tilted in towards engine as far as possible to move that god damn return fitting away from inside fender apron, would like to heat that tube and try to...

Fan is stock, your pulley is similar but different than mine, look at the nose on mine versus yours and look at clearance you have between back of pulley and the bolt head for the tension brkt., loads of clearance, my pulley isn't even on flush with shaft about .17 thousands from flush and still...

Don't know what's wrong with my setup, you look to have loads of clearance everywhere, I'm dealing with thousandths. Can't move pump pulley to far onto to shaft or back side of pulley starts to rub against fastener for adjusting brkt. And if pulley isn't on enough starts to hit fan. What a...

Anyone with similar setup? Would appreciate pictures. Trying to get belt alignment coming off rear grove of water pump pulley to rear grove of pump pulley dead nuts. Right now belt running slightly to the left of center on pump pulley, front of pump pulley assembly almost hits fan, return...

Thanks Mark, your brkt. should give me the added clearance I'm looking for. Well call tomorrow. Ordering your pump brkt. along with the adjusting brkt., your #122-23 and LH lower dash pad used, believe your#152-61, that should get me above $80 minimum.

Yeah, just if I screw it up what then. Thinking about finding a spring to slide over return fitting, then heat fitting with spring and bend slightly ever so carefully, hopefully spring will keep me from kinking the fitting.

Have Sagniaw Pump mounted to smog brkt. on 78 FJ40. Question is, will Mark's Brkt. allow the pump to set-up higher than the original smog brkt.? With smog brkt., return fitting on pump angles very close to the driver's inside fender apron. When attached, return hose is wedged up against the...

Thanks Pin_Head, yes I do plan on using existing W & WL wires, route them thru the dash V right above steering column mtg. Brkt. On bottom of the dash. Think existing wires just long enough if I keep new ammeter location on steering column either at 12 o'clock position or slightly to the left...

Looking to install a stand alone VDO ammeter on steering column. As mention in related posts on the subject, have replaced OEM instrument cluster with Dolphin/Shark instruments thru BTB products, mainly because tired of not being able to see info. A night . Hope these new instruments solve...

Looking for input on the recommended aftermarketstandalone ammeter ana good mtg. Location. Want to connect to shunt.

With the info. I have gained, the new plan is to use the +,- wires do the Full Throttle Position Switch. My 78 is desmogged, so the FTPS is not used, awg is similar to awg for new voltmeter and the wires for the FTPS are in a good location for splicing to the new voltmeter gauge, leaving the...
