SBC Pulley for minitruck power steering?

[JB740i]

Okay, found out that summit has a great search option where you can search by engine size. Pretty cool. Not really sure what vehicle/year my 283 came out of so it was making it tougher to find parts.

I apparently need to go home and measure what size my crankshaft pulley is, right? I need to get a two groove one so I can run the PS pump. I know I've got a long water pump. So any two groove pulley should fit, right? The second groove will be inboard of the existing groove?

Anyone got one laying around they want to sell?

Anything else I need to know? I think I also need to measure the diameter of the existing one right, apparently they come in different sizes.

those black pulleys are pretty sweet.

i found them too late, after i spent a good chunk of cash on some march serpentine pulley set. march makes good stuff but are way pretty

Those are single grooved, right?

yeah thats my truck a few months back. the headers are Sanderson
Sanderson Headers

i had to use angled plug headers because of the Canfield heads.

i will take pictures tonight if i have time..

are you worried about your steering linkage?

sorry about the hijack

Sorry i guess i was trying to upgrade you to the serpentine belts. but i am telling you those are nice pulleys.

if you do have a long water pump, and want to stay with the v-belts i might still have my autozone specials.. all chromed out you would just need to go and get some more high quality add-on junk. Some yosemite sam mud flaps should do the trick and they'll fit right in.

yeah i have to measure the distance from the head to the steering box. it is very tight.

i may have to wait till i do the power steering conversion before getting headers.

Sent ya a PM on the pulley. Will check locally for the mudflaps.

I wanted to add something to this post for future reference. I tried to do the March, Zoops, billet spec., etc. brackets like you have and then get the pulleys from PSC and they won't work. There alt. pulley is set up for a mini race alt. and it runs a 4 groove belt instead of the 6 groove belt on the PS side. It wouldn't line up. So it looks like for SBC serpentine options you have what you did above or go with the stock GM setup.

I am going with the stock GM setup since it comes with all new acc. for the price of just the pulleys and brackets on the billet products. I was hoping for a clean looking 2 belt serpentine setup, but I don't care about all the bling. Atleast with the GM setup I can incorporate a compressor for onboard air.
