Default Please help with pulley/accessory mounting and WP

So I have my new 331 and I am trying to get everything lined up. my old accessory system was pieced together and I always had issues getting everything to line up and to have my belts stay tight. So I am on a mission to get everything working as it should.

My new engine has a new but old style timing cover. I will need to run the water pump, power steering, alt., and A/C. I am having all sorts of issues right from the start. I have a alt mounting kit shown here http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mc...5-09/overview/

However, no matter how I try to line up the alt, the spacers are incorrect. if I use the included spacers as shown, the WP pulley contacts the bracket. I thought about switching to a serpentine set up but then I will need to switch to a late model WP because the rotation is different. Again, I am fine doing so.

Please put up you suggestion for the best way for me to get all my accessories to mount and work. I am fine with spending $. I just need to get it completed.

thanks
B

i don't understand your problem.

what pump are you using.

bolt the bkt to the pump with no spacers.

the alt moves to the front of the bkt.

make the proper length spacer for behind the alt if needed.

if the alt pullry does not line up then at least one of the pulleys is wrong, not the alt spacing.
