Any one know where I can get a non under drive dual alternator pulley?
And what are the best belts money can buy. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683621.gif I had my alternator belt break on me on the road and since I have no air pump it was the only belt runing the water pump and fanclucth. So it started to overheat so i pulled to the side and went to discount autoparts but the only belts the had where some dayco top cog ****. Since I had no tools with me I had to buy a small tool kit but no socket to loosen the ac blet tensioner, out came the pocket knife and with a snip of the wrist the ac belt was off LOL! ! ! put on the alt belt and went on my merry way. The moral of the story is I DONT WANT ANY MORE ******* BELTS BREAKING ON ME ON THE STREET ! ! ! ! I want peace of mind with the belts at least (SORRY HAD TO VENT OUT A BIT) |
What kind of money you wanting to spend. There are quite a few options out there.
|
You can buy one in the store.

isnt rotary great/ When you remove the smog pump the alternator tends to squeal and snap belts. The dual pully keeps that from happening. |
That is what I dont want I dont want to be stuck in traffic and see my temp going up quick and blowing my "HEADS" LOL j/k having a belt break on you is souch a pain in the ass. It is something so small but if you are caught off gaurd you are stuck.
I am still per say breaking in my engine since it came off my donor 88 SE but since I did the swap my self im still even after 500 miles of flawless operation I look at my gauges every miinute. Not to sure of my mechanic skills if you know what I mean. At least with the dual alt pulley and a good set of goodyear gatorback belts(which I was told are the best) I will have "PEACE OF MIND" That is what I want with my car but then again I want N2O so go figure LOL. Its the little **** that pisses me off. |
I'm a happy Banzai pulley customer...

you're supposed to periodically check stuff like that so it doesnt leave you stuck

where in miami are you at. And I have the stock fan clucth. I think putting the dual alternator pulley with the goodyear belts will do the trick https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

I live in hialeah but I work down in kendall. I had a stock fan clutch also. I knew if I would of put on a dual pulley the belts would still break cuz the real problem was my fan clutch. I put on a 91 fan and the belts have not broken once yet.
|
I live in hielah too well miami springs my backyard is the canal to okeechobee. You got to let me drive your car I never got to drive a TII LOL. Well I ordered the dual alt pulley and going to get the gatorback belts this week.
|
On the topic of "best belts money can buy", I was impressed with both Goodyear Gatorbacks and Dayco Top Cog. The Goodyears lasted well over 30K miles and two years before I replaced them. Showed little cracking, probably could have gone longer. The Daycos have lasted a year and seen over 20K miles. They look great too.
|
im sticking with good year. Im also going to get the radiator hoses and stuff from them. and their wheels.

This kit is $294.99 plus shipping, would take a day to get in stock or less since Atkins is local.
I'll have it added to the store within a couple hours. |
My serpentine setup was a FREEBIE!!!!
|
That serpentine set up is raw as **** but the thing im in miami and 90 degree days with 70% humidity feels like 100+ so unless they have a A/c serpentine to it is Kinda out of the question though.
(BUT DAMN THAT IS NICE) |
You use the stock pulley for the a/c and p/s if you have it. The serpentine part only replaces the 2 belts that go to the water pump/alternator/air pump.
