1989 TBI serpentine bracket set-up
1989 TBI serpentine bracket set-up
What was the serpentine bracket set-up for 305TBI engines without A/C? Someone put a truck 5.7 engine in the '89 Camaro I got which I believe has brackets that sit too high to be used in a car, so I'm trying to figure what I need to put it back to the car serpentine set-up. I believe there was still one large aluminum bracket that housed the alternator and power steering pump (that was specific to cars), but I'm needing to know if there was a separate one for the belt tensioner (and pulley) or whether this also attached to the previously mentioned bracket in non-A/C cars, since they wouldn't have had the A/C bracket to attach it to like the A/C equipped cars did..
Thanks for any help.

You can get a a/c delete pulley if needed, pulley offset is different as well with tbi trucks.

For non a/c they just had a delete pulley same as tbi truck. Two different styles of delete for air.

It must have been easier for them to do it that way because it doesn't seem like a good design to be turning pulley that don't do anything except hold the belt. Seems like extra friction, not to mention an extra fast moving part to wear out eventually.
