A small part of the OP's troubles may come from where he lives. The Columbia, SC area gets stifling hot! When somebody in hell pisses the devil off, he sends them to Columbia for punishment! :eek: @Dart5150 research water pump pulley's for 64-69 cars with AC. I think the pulley's on them are smaller, to overdrive the pump like Rob said. Bouchillon Performance, down around Charleston sells reproduction pulleys, so maybe they will have what you need. You will need one for a 64-69 car because you have a cast iron water pump. The depth of the pulleys changed in 70 when they went to the longer nosed aluminum water pump. Your Dart sure looks nice, so I hope you can get it sorted out.

:thumbsup:

JDMopar you are correct! Not only does it get as hot as Satan's boiler room here, it's also pretty humid much of the Summer. 'Step outside and take a drink of fresh air' humid. Although the last few days have been abnormally cool for SC in August.

Thanks for the recommendation over in Charleston. I already located a smaller pulley on E-bay and ordered it, but I'll reach out to Bouchillon if that one isn't correct. Thanks for your help!
