RE: [Chrysler300] Belts & Tran Lines - A little help please

["Gary Nelson" <gnelson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Keith and all

I have several 57 + ? factory a/c systems. The crank pulleys have two sets
double groves. Each set same size. Then I bought a 58 Imperial parts car. It
was a factory air car. When I pulled the motor I noticed the crank pulley
was as you described. The 2 inner  groves are different. I am sure like you
described. The compressor was not on the motor when I bought it. I was
perplexed how the belts routed. It is odd that a 58 Imperial was different
from a D.
If you want to borrow one of mine until you locate one, your are welcome to
it. I am a long ways from installing 2 factory units on my cars.

Thank you,

  Well, I think I probably have something unintendedly odd. I'm putting
  on the full factory air arrangement up front to handle my "dealer
  installed" A/C setup - A/C pump, dual pulley gen, dual pulley water
  pump, and 4 groove crank pulley. Going from the back, the #1 groove of
  the crank pulley is 1/2" smaller in diameter than the #2 pulley. And
  now I'm sure these two should be the same, and that would be my
  problem. I got the crank pulley from Jeff Carter, so I'll check with
  him in the morning to see if he thinks he sent me a wrong one.

  If I'm not able to get a "correct" crank pulley by the time we leave for
  CA, would you think a single belt could handle the water pump and the
  power steering pump? Or is that just going to slip when I turn?

  Thanks.
  Keith
