Serpentine Kit

HYPERTECH SERPENTINE PULLEY SET. Seller sez it will fit my car but Im not sure if its true. I dont have the serpentine belt now. I have a 305 TPI with air. Will this thing work?

get the part number and call hypertech.if it's made for the serpentine setup most likely it will not fit.

85-87 used a sepentine/v-belt combo. from the looks of that lower pulley with the: serpetine, v-belt, v-belt, with a sepentine alt pulley, it looks like it might be right.

Thanks for the response, this could hardley be called a "power adder" so I appreciate it.

I asked for a Hypertech part number. Hypertech has no reference to this part on the site now so I assume its a non-event.

My brother is a big power adder, he is building a 68 mustang fastback twin turbo that should give this group a good run for the money. Its never been done before and he will be the first to pull this off.

Looks ruff now but it is a well planned project by a Cal Poly Engineer.




This crazy stuff runs in the family, my lil bro runs an old Ranchero with a blown 302.

I have given up on Fords a long time ago but they continue on. How sad heheh.

yeah we built a twin turbo mustang using an Incon kit it made a whole 425 RWHp (with the wastegate lines pulled) on a 306 with trick flow heads even with a perfect A/F ratio. HA-HA and the sad part is how much it cost and it was supposed to be "bolt in" but it took 1000 hrs of fabrication to make it work.

You probably can't tell but this is a 68 fastback. Im sure its been done on later generations He expects 600 FHP and uses a Volvo 740 Intercooler.

Got the instructions on the pullies, it will fit:

85-86 Camaro / Firebird 305/350 TPI
85-86 Camaro / Firebird 305/350 Carb
85-88 Caprice / Monte Carlo 305 Carb
85-87 Chevy/ GMC Truck 305/350
87 Camaro / Firebird 305/350

They tell you up front about the voltage drop @ idle.

I wonder if its worth the hassle.
