Quick update on rebuild

[yorkshirespud]

Finally got the new pulley system sorted on the truck engine rebuild. The power steering pump I was worried about was no problem, and actually the air conditioning compressor which I thought would be fine needs a bit of modification instead. You can never tell!! Getting there tho:



More as it comes! I'm gonna get this thing back on the road if it kills me ....

Nice. I wanted to get a set of March for my 351c but they dont do a serpentine setup for them.

You gonna shine the alternator up??

Hey Nick, yeah they seem to do one for the 351 Windsor, but not the Cleveland.

Alternator stays as it is, I''ve just had to buy a new A/C compressor on ebay 10 mins ago!!!

Yeah it's true, and when you look at the March web site, you can see how over the top some of the 'make it look nice' shiney stuff is.

I never really bought the kit with the aim of super-shiney, more for functionality of having a proper serpentine system instead of the stock 'year changeover' REALLY weird setup of mixed serpentine and v-belts. Plus, the *cough* supercharger addition in the future will be much easier ..

Of course, if it looks nice as well, that's no  bad thing

Those March set-ups look the tits.

Just found out the cleveland will take the windsor pullys. All id have to do is get a reverse rotation waterpump and a new PS pump and pully.
