If I plan on running power steering and AC on my 55, I know what pulleys do I need?

I have alt pulley, AC pulley, 2 grove water pump pulley and 2 grove crank pulley. Do I need a 3 grove crank and water pump pulley??

Yes You do need a 3 groove pulley but make sure You get one to match the waterpump

typically you need a 3 groove crank pulley and 2 groove water pump pulley
on short water pump systems. The crank pulley groove closest to the engine goes around the water pump and alternator ( on driver's side ) the middle groove goes around the water pump pulley and the A/C compressor ( mounted on passenger's side) and the outer groove drives the P/S pump mounted low on driver's side.

Pulleys and mounts can be a pain if you try to mix and match them its best to find a system that is already worked out so every thing lines up , either duplicate/use a factory setup or do a aftermarket kit unless your willing and able to fabricate alternator, p/s and a/c mounts.

Alright cool thank you for clearing that up.

As of right now I have a single A/C, single P/S, a dual W/P, and a dual crank pulley. So i guess i need to sell the dual C/P for a triple. Anyone wanna trade????:happy0030:

if you already have a 2 groove crank pulley you need a 1 groove add on that makes it a 3 groove setup in the click on picture link below the 2 groove crank pulley is the top center one and the add on 3rd groove for the crank is the top right one. the top left is the 2 groove water pump pulley and the 2 lower ones are for the ps pump

Strange no one has asked if he is running short or long waterpump. I am going to guess from other post long, in that case, with AC he will need dual PS.

On this one without seeing exactly what you have for your setup, I wouldn't know exactly what would best suit your needs.

We design and build pulley kits so that you don't have try to figure out how to make all this old stuff work together.

Let me know if you need more help or information.

Thanks,
