All stock pulleys. Just sanding them down and repainting them. Dman water pump had me angry for a moment, I sprayed all the bolts a nice black color and torqued it down all ready to bolt up a carb, pulleys, belt, distributor, and be ready for it to turn over.

just a tip everyone on here might know, but i will put it out there anyway, an electric water pump frees up about 15 horse. i didnt belive it, so i put one on my car and i gained 12 horse to the wheels.

I had to switch to a standard because with just an altenator there is no tensioner #1 and it spins the pump the wrong way. plus my new mount weights about 8 ounces and the old huge bracket and tensioner weights about 15 lbs :shrug:

Okay, and now I'm absolutely confused with these dissenting answers. Does it reverse how the belt is run every time you take off an accessory, or something?

IDK , we tried to run the belt on the passenger side crank to alt and back and all we did was blow the belt off or smoke and polish it. Never used the tensioner os an idler tho. then again never considered leaving all that heavy shit on the car and ****** rigging it

1993 Cobra water pump pulley, WP641 STANDARD ROTATION WATER PUMP (or NAPA 55-4052 ), underdrive crankshaft pulley, 3G alternator on stock alternator bracket, Dayco Poly Cog 5060450, $22.88 at Advance Auto Parts (you might end up using 5060445 / 6PK1130 if it needs to be ½ inch shorter).

But then wouldn't you be running the flat side of the belt on the WP pulley? Isn't that a bad idea?
