anyone have aftermarket accessory brackets?

i'd like to put some nice ones on my new engine...gm wants 600 for the L98 stock setup new. that's too much for brackets.


anyone have something or know of something.....any pics?

 

You might check out a company called March, you may be familiar with their underdrive accessory pulleys. They also make accessory brackets using (I think) billet. Granted, I'll bet billet brackets don't come cheap, but I think they'd look right at home on your car. And at least you would end up with something better for your money than GM's overpriced stamped steel.

 

You could always just pick up a spare set of 88-92 serpentine brackets and polish them. Sooner or later I will get around to polishing mine...

 

does anyone know if march sells brackets that will work with this sort of setup for sure??


anyone have aftermarket brackets here at all?

 

march has alot of great stuff....but they arent the company people make them out to be.

they couldnt get me a custom setup to run an alternator and power steering pump with an electric water pump (driver side bottom pump, pass side top alt)

and when i asked for the same thing with a short water pump they basically told me to go F*** my self....so as long as thats not what your lookin for i guess they have it

 

yeah i just want to basically have the stock setup but with better looking pieces....possibly get rid of the need for a ac delete pulley and a a.i.r. delete pulley if possible....


sounds like you got a bad deal; why would they act like that i wonder?

 

These guys have some billet brackets that may work (???). Look towards the bottom:

I am looking to do the same thing. I talked to March and explained what I had and they recommended a kit that summit sells, but was around $700 and I had to use a standard flow water pump.

Street and Performance has a serpentine kit, but you have to use a short reverse flow waterpump, which would mean that I would have to buy another aluminum pump and there kit at about $1000.

Vintage Air makes a serpentine kit, but it is as big and bulky as the brackets that we already have and I think that it is close to $1000.

I think that I have run out of places to look, let me know if you find something at a reasonable price that looks good.

 

Get a stock set of serpentines and powdercoat them, surprised your show car is getting a/c deleted, but just powdercoat the delete, and theres no need for an AIR delete idler wtf ?

 

best price i've found is right around 550 from march....still need to purchase a water pump, but this includes all the aluminum pulleys and needed brackets for the alternator and power steering.

not to bad.....they call the kit a serpentine conversion.
