Re: Alternator overdrive pulley. will this one work
I think it should be the standard 17mm, so it should work.
That one on summit is made for the full serpentine belt system though. That's not what 1986 fbodies came with.

Leave the gears alone and get a pro Yank 3400 converter. It's expensive but well worth it in performance, and you won't lose any mileage or have to worry about gears or fixing your speedo.
