In the past a lot of guys were using pulleys off of F-series trucks. Might want to look into that.

I did see that just not sure if it works on our engines. Looks like they used them on the older engines.

That one won't work unfortunately. It's the smooth idler...unless im tripping. Been known to happen

Do you need a smooth one or ribbed?
Because the one I linked you is a ribbed idler.

Its the smooth 70mm idler above and to the right of the crank if you are looking at the engine.

So the one behind the water pump?
Honestly if you have the funds, VMP sells a complete kit.

Which one?

 

[Beerhasvitamins]

Literally the only idler lol.
I did my own 8 rib for 600ish
ATI Damper shell = 370
Alternator and water pump = 160
Tensioner = 30
KB pulley = 45

The KB idlers I have already work with the 8 rib.

I can use almost nothing in that VMP kit.

Finally got a pic to upload

Ah. If I had to guess it would probably be this one that you are missing.

But if that isn't the one you need. I would contact the guys over at team beefcake.
They would definitely be able to hook you up with the pulley that you would need.

 

[Beerhasvitamins]

That looks like it would work. Im home now so I can look deeper into this. Thanks for the help! I had this all planned out and forgot that damned idler lol

 

[Evilwill]

lol. YW and good luck
