Double Alternater Pully

[Grizzly]

Does anyone have one of the above they're not using?

Are they all different? I like the idea of running two belts.

We have one on our spare engine that you can have, Its the one on the crankshaft.

You will have to get yourself a double one for the Alternator though

Why?? It just takes up more space, there's no obvious advantage... It was only done on the injection models because of the power steering I think...

 

Actually a few people have changed back to single pulley for extra space...

I have plenty of space 'cos I've dumped the fan.

I already have double pulleys on the crank & water pump. I just thought it would be better if I had a double pulley on the alternotor too.

There is less chance of two belts breaking than the one

And if you have your waterpipe routed through the middle of the belt you really can't be bothered with having your fan belt break

Very true Bill that is the main reason I kept with 2 belts as something like 2 hours work on the side of the road just because you have thrown a belt is not my idea of fun.
