I haven't used one before but I was looking at this one a while ago.

455 kits are more common.

This comes up regularly. The March system is NOT a true serpentine system, but at least it's extremely expensive...

The only Olds motor that used a true serpentine system is the V6 diesel. There were two versions of the brackets, one for FWD and one for RWD. The RWD version will bolt to any 65-90 Olds V8. Good luck finding one in a wrecking yard.

You CAN buy the reverse rotation water pump used on those motors, however. Some folks have adapted the cast brackets from an SBC for accessory mounting and used the diesel pump.
