Yes, separate 6 rib serpentine for accessories. The blower drive pulley is a dedicated 8 rib serpentine that has its own HD automatic belt tensioner. This allows you to change blower pulleys (and boost) without disturbing the accessories.

This also keeps the blower belt as sort as possible which helps eliminate slip.

I’ll post pics of the accessory drive as it progresses, but it will accommodate alternator, power steering, and optionally AC.
