Default Secondary/Flip/Direct Drive

Anybody care to share your setup if you've ran one of these without AC?

Mine is the A&A secondary drive.

If you're running it without A/C, why not get 2 more ribs cut into your balancer and get the appropriate length belt, so it just runs from the balancer to alternator, to PS pump?

...Might've just answered my own question. If it touches the water pump in that path, it won't work

I think I have rounded up the needed ac parts to just run it as designed instead of trying to make something work.

Go with our cog driven direct drive, we would modify your existing flip drive, not only will it work correctly without the belt slip unlike all others, you do not have to run AC if you do not want too.

Thanks, the difference we have noticed on several levels is impressive and rather surprising really. Duty cycle on injectors has dropped substantially, along with having to take away a good amount of fuel from the car that were std four or six rib drive to now having the cog.

Interesting.

Could you post or pm what would be involved in converting a secondary drive over to this?

I most likely will just try to get her going like it is, but may look at that in the future.

We need the balancer and jack shaft pulley assembly. There is down time when sending in an existing set up compared to purchasing the balancer and flip drive from us new.
