Short of a bidding war on ebay or buying a modern harmonic balancer does any one know of a source for a stock style 8BA or 8RT two groove wide belt crank shiv?
I kinda screwed up and ordered truck belts and pumps. Only to realize I have a car pulley. I would even trade if someone wants......
I do not mind used or new. Just don't want to spend $300 on a harmonic balancer.

 

8BA-6312-B .. Double Sheave Crank Pulley-3 11/16" long / Obsolete ~ No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

1948/53 Trucks / 1949 Ford Passenger Cars.

 

Well thanks for the quick reply ND. Now I know not to start calling obsolete dealers............

Glad to see you are still hard at it. Tried PMing you but see that you no longer take them. How can I get ahold of you if I need other ford parts?

 

wide pulleys are hard to find because most new 8ba builds are using wide belts. that is because wide belt pumps are much easier to find and cheaper also. check the pictures in the mags. hope you found a pulley by now.,,...jack

 

Got one off ebay. Bled aout my ear to buy it though.

 

Glad you found one. You won't be sorry for going to wide belts...jack
