I was thinking that since the crank pulley has two grooves could we get a
double groove alt pulley and double the waterpump pulley and use the shims
to align it and use a more friendly dual belt single tension point system? I
think my alt is drawing too much of a belt load this trip I seem to of
toasted my alt belt and the new waterpump belt is loose after 500 miles?

hi Jim,
if you are wishing to purchase a complete stock set-up at a reasonable
price..
that can be arranged.
They're not 'discarded'.
I save all parts for all water-cooled vanagons and syncro's that I ever
get.
So when people need something ....I might be able to help them out.
And it's my business of course too.
and I keep the parts indoors, well organized ......like decent, not hacked
or missing stuff etc.
