Serpentine drive help ...
I need the quick and dirty THIS FITS answers please. My SBC v belt set up is weak, I am looking for something plain Jane or billet if I have too, complete with all components, it has to fit out of the box, part numbers would help! LOL
I don't ask for much, if you have a 3rd gen Camaro set up or complete aftermarket unit for sale, shoot me a PM.
Thanks ...
Dave

Here is a thread about a Holley mid mount for a SBC. Only small trimming on the fan shroud to fit. No modifications needed if you have electric fans. Like its LS counterpart it’s probably definitely cheaper to buy the proprietary Holley pump and source your own GM accessories. Looks very nice though.

Look at Jones raceing. I've used them on several customer cars, great fitup. Look nice. And just about any configuration you can dream up..

take a look at OE serp setups for early C4, and same era of F body; verify car you're looking at has a Gen 1 sbc.
Those in this range have a Short, reverse-Rotation pump.
do Not give a second thought to any model having Gen II motor. No-Go.

Thanks for this, I really want to keep this as an old school look but the simplicity and performance of the serpentine may be worth a longer look. I believe Dave Howard had a factory 3rd gen setup on his road race clone, with only a couple of issues.
Just trying not to billet it all up and break the. Bank!
Thanks again.

Cheap and effective ...Salvage yard serp. pulleys and tensioner $25total plus tav and 1 can sprat paint.
Use a long straightedge yardstick to align the pulley faces.
The ONLY thing I need to do is "shorten the crank pulley 1/2" and reweld it usinf\g a dial indicator for Trueness....Taaaa Daaa!

I sent you the pictures of the Concept1 serpentine belt system for my big block.
Its about as plane Jane as I could find offered out there.
Their quality was amazing and everything fit perfect.
The brackets are all billet aluminum available in black or natural anodized or chrome and all stainless steel hardware.
It came with every component including an Edelbrock Victor Series hi volume water pump, Power Master 140 amp alternator and Sanden ac compressor..
It’s available with a ps pump as well but I have manual steering so my setup came without.
