Serpentine Belt System
How would I go about using Serpentine (sp) belt system on my 66 w/ 390 and power steering?
Like what year model truck would I look for to get the pulleys and such.
All I have on the truck is power steering, waterpump, and alternator so it cant be that hard.
Any help would be appreciated

Serpentine Belt System
You need to look on a late 80's or newer car or truck. You will have to fabricate a bracket for the belt tensioner to mount to. It's not as easy as you're assuming. Remember Murphy's law. Everything that can go wrong , will go wrong! You are going to have to really look this one over, as the 390 is a "V" belt system. I'd look in some of the hotrod catalogs, maybe someone makes a serpentine belt system for it.
