I have V-belt with few min. things, Can I do a little custom stuff to addapt TPI serp
Ok, I have no idea where to post this kinda Q, but anyways...
I have a pretty custom 91 Z that makes about 400RWHP before the N20 with a 6 speed and a moser 12 bolt. 6 point and blah blah....
I am running no PS right now, it is a manual box. Not a cheap S10 box or anything like that.
I was stupid and got this http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku
Now I am sick of manual steering and of my slipping V-belt. I want to convert to Serp. But at the same time, I don't have AC, or smog pump. Right now all i have is my Alt. I just want to add PS and the serp setup, but I don't want to run all those "delete" pullies.
What do I do??
I was thinking about taking one bracket, the one that holds that PS and the alt, and installing that. Then using all the stock pullies. Omit the other side, problem is that is where the idler pulley is. But since I am omiting that whole side, maybe I can find some other location to install a custom idler pully or something.....
What do you think? possible (I know anything is but at what cost)? been done? anyone with pics? HELP, haha.
thanks.

Yeah, I know. They are just SUPER expensive. I was trying to find the cheapest way to go serpentine.
The mach stuff I would be looking at $500 easy, if not more. I am trying to spend less than $200 if possible.
