Instead of using the A/C pulley as a spacer could you use the ring that goes on the out side of the pulleys. You know like a spare one of course. Is that about the same thickness? Also my idea was to use pulleys off a later model chebby like a late eighty's small block. Manatee style impala. The way I had it figured..... I already use the A4 compressor and they come serp already, then use a reg GM alternator pulley, GM already has a serp P/S pulley, redrill a chebby W/P pulley, looks like everything would line up. Of course add idlers, the problem I was seeing was the crank pulley. How much deeper of more shallow is the ford crank pulley as compared to the two oringinal V's ? the way I had it figured was just A/C had to be shimmed to bring it in line with everything else?

I've been trying to do this for a couple years... Ill be looking forward to future posts.
