Fan belt questions

DartGTDan said

LImopar,

I have a '71 Dart GT that I removed all the underhood A/C compnents from. It is a 318 car with the Federal Power Steering system.
I have a short synopsis of what I did to my car on my cardomain page (click the link in my signature).
Hope it helps. Let me know if you need any other information.

Hey Dan

I am in a similar situation.....I have a 72 fish but it has a 76 318 in it that has the AC bracketry for it.....it also seems to have the NON/AC alt bracket for it aside from the big AC bracket mount for the alt.....the car has power steering (notsure which -- its the plastic capped unit)....

Looks like following your lead I can make the PS/water pump/crank routing work ifI get the right belt...the 15440 belt I have now is too small.....in your pics you are using a 15461...gonna try to find one of those...

Any chance you know the length of the belt you are using?

Have you had any issues after grinding down the water pump fin? Looks like I will have to do the same thing.....

Your site was really helpful!
