Advice Wanted
I am seeking advice. I have a chance to purchase the whole serpentine system from a 1986 Vette to include: all brackets, pulleys, idler pulley, AC compressor, and Power Steering pump. The seller will not give me a price, but wants me to make him a reasonable offer. What do you think a reasonable offer would be? Also, am I wondering what else I will need.

Be careful I don't know when they changed direction on the water pump, but for the zig-zag/idler type serpentine they used a reverse water pump. My 85 TA had the once around and alt tightening type with norm water pump.

Do you know the thickness of the end of the heads? Meaning, do you think one could drill and tap the head for the second bolt? I will have to purchase the water pump. I asked for it but the guy wants to keep it with the engine.
