Which engine do you want to sell? It seems like you've had pretty good luck with Ebay..........

ebay
with a bell housing, trans, and torque tube.
Ebay seems to be a good option, just wondering if there’s better.

Try selling it within the FTE family. If it runs well and is priced right, you will sell it. Location is key. A well worded advertisement on CL will draw attention from more than a local area. I have nothing against Ebay.

I am not sure you really need two belts on the alternator. MOPAR used the dual belt setup when running AC. The dual belts ran from the crank up to the AC compressor and then to the alternator. The alternator was used to adjust the tension. You can find a single belt pulley for the MOPAR alternator or just run one belt and leave the second slot empty.
I think you could run a single belt, crank to alternator to water pump back to crank.

I wanted to use an alternator and figured I could make it all work.

I think it might burn up the bearing in the alternator....

I hope not, but I cannot understand why it would.
Other than the second pulley being further away from the bearing and subject
to what is a longer lever arm.
A single belt system running on 3 pulleys has the same belt geometry as my
conglomeration.

tinkering and puttering
I looked for some way to flush the block.
Can I run the engine using the hose for cooling?
