I just finished swapping a GM 350 HO crate motor with long tube headers into my camaro. The only problem is that the pulleys vibrate to much for my liking. The power steering bracket had to be taken off to fit my long tubes on and now the it shakes. Can someone lead me to a replacement pulley system that will make everything firm or brackets that will solve my problem? I have no ac. It's two belts, power steering on the lower driver side, mechanical short water pump, and alternator on passenger side.
Yeah short neck waterpump. not long style. I don't know if that makes a difference with brackets or something. Just looking for some links to possible pulley kits or brackets for my motor. My stock 305 parts arent doing a very good job.
Thanks
Stock is a long water pump. It will affect both pulley and bracket alignment.
Where did the short pump come from?
The rear PS/AC bracket that bolts to the exhaust manifold needs to be modified in order to fit with headers. Not a hard thing to do, but I'd call it a necessary thing to do so the bracket can be put back on.
