I'm looking at the CVF bracket and pulleys for my BBO build, and see that several forum members have used and/or are using them so looking for input and opinions.

Non-AC with a 5.6" water pump. Using the OLDS-ALTBRKT-455 bracket and this pulley set OLDS2KIT-5.6, which power steering pulley would be correct? I've seen the SBC2PS mentioned, but can anyone confirm the offset is correct for use with the other pulleys indicated here? I believe this should be matching the stock pulley for this application? Specs for this PS Pulley are -

Diameter: 5.8Overall Length: 1.3"
Offset: 0.92" (From Front of Pulley to Center of V-groove)
Offset: 0.53" (From Mounting Surface of Pulley to Center of V-groove)
Grooves: 1 Shaft Diameter: 5/8" Key-way








The alternator bracket can be used without the pulleys, of course, and I think it will make plumbing my fuel lines a lot easier. The pulleys would just be for engine bling as I'm not looking to gain any HP from them.

For those of you who have or are using these pulleys, are you experiencing any concerns regarding cooling or charging issues?

 

When I had a BBO, I had CVF pulleys and alt. bracket on it, no issues with cooling or charging.
I don't remember the part number on PS pulley, but everything lined up.
