ok going out in a bit to bolt on the plate so i can see how far the pulley has to move to line up. i have a pulley but it's from a different car, the grooves line up but the center is totally different. the auto electric place here had a drum full of different pulleys. thinking of making a center with the correct size hole, pressing it into this pulley center, then welding it to the existing pulley. the grooves are right,but not the center. the 91 pulley will fit,but i couldn't find just a pulley. i used one of these for the alternator arm,
i cut it off just behind the slot, rounded the end,then drilled a 29/64 hole in the end behind the slot. the adjusting slot on the ac bracket won't line up with the alternator,so the hole on the arm had a bolt that goes through it,this bolt bolts through the ac adjuster slot. the alternator adjuster bolt goes through the slot in the arm,then when it's tensioned correctly,both bolts will get tightened. this allows the use of the existing adjuster slot on the ac bracket. looks to be plenty of clearance back there. i believe the alternator will be able to be removed or installed by removing one fan from the radiator.i'm taking out the PS pump during the install,just because it's much eaisier to install the brackets.
