Hi guys,

I'm trying to fabricate a high mount for my alternator and potentially an air con compressor.

I'm wondering if there are double groove water pump pulleys?

the crank pulley I know you can get double groove but the water pump??

reason i need to do this is the space is limited and no conventional mounts work.

CHeers

Ed,
If this is the case, then you have the option of using a Torana alternator bracket as these mount reasonably low on the drivers side. Its also possible to adapt the VT alternator bracket to suit a Sanden compressor fairly easily and you already have

MAtt,

thx for the heads up on the torana bracket,

trouble with a V8 into an early girl is the subframe usually interferes with the swing of the alternator.

Cheers
