My 351w has the old v-belts, i would like to convert it into a serpentine belt any ideas on what i would need to get to do this, my donor motor is a 1989 302

 

Waterpump, all brackets, maybe timing cover, basically everything off the front of the block.

 

Wht would you want to make the swap in my Opinion the v-belts are the way to go.

 

My a/c bracket is custom made, my crank pulley is bent and throws the a/c belt, which in turn throws evert other belt above 3K rpm and im tired of it

 

It may be easier to get a v-belt setup from the junkyard. You will have to change all the pulleys on the accessories(you need a special puller for the power steering pump), all the brackets, and also the waterpump(it turns backwards on a serpentine system). The serpentine systems in my experience are noisy too.

 

There's a good chance the brackets from that 302 will not fit the 351 since the block is taller. If any of them bolt to the front of the motor and the heads, they wont work.
