Pulley and belt alignment problems?

You should be able to put shims behind the brakets and move the pump forward. Might need bolts that are longer too.

Is it possible that the crank and water pump pullies should have a second grove that would line up properly?

Post a photo of the entire pulley system, alt, crank, WP etc from the side

The crank does have a second groove, but that doesn't line up either. Here are some photos, and I'll get more/better ones today. To recap, the only thing that's been changed on all the pulleys and belts from the original configuration is the water pump, bought new at NAPA. All the rest is the same, and I bagged/tagged everything when disassembling.

Here is a side shot of the alternator to crank pulley, both grooves line up perfectly.



Here is the water pump to crank pulley. The groove on the water pump falls between the two crank grooves.



Here's the power steering pump to crank photo, the power steering pump needs to come toward the radiator about 1/8" or so to line up.



This stuff is driving me batty. I keep fiddling with it and I keep getting nowhere. I tried two different water pumps, they are all off. I suppose I can hog out the mounting bolt holes on the PS bracket to get some adjustment forward, otherwise I'm stumped. Is is possible this was all wacky for the last 40 years?
