That's a power steering pump pulley. He needs a crank pulley

I know. Sorry I came off a little crass. I only had a minute and was posting from my phone.


KA power steering pulleys are like belly buttons. KA crank pulleys are pretty rare and start at around $500. I'm pretty sure they didn't use a two groove power steering pump pulley on 68 W30. It was a single groove KG because 68 W30's didn't come with A/C

the pulley is correct for 68 and 69. still not the easiest to find and pricey when located.

Im sorry. You're absolutely correct. I was looking right at the assembly manual diagram when I wrote that too.

I'm out in the garage looking for the crank pulley, I did find a S and KJ crank pulley. Now I come back in and its the water pump pulley. Going back out again.
