Hey guys whats up, i got a question for whoever has done the the serpentine conversion from junkyard parts.
I got all the parts to do it but kinda stumped on installing it. Can any body show the setup on their truck, my motor is a '79 or 80 and does not have the 3 holes on the pass. side

Anybody?? ???

A late model engine should have three holes for mounting the brackets, two upper and one lower. I got my serpentine system from a 86 S-10 pick up. Here are a couple of pictures that might help.

Hey Grover thanks, i just had to make sure. So i guess i will not be able to mount the set up on my motor without switching heads, cuz on the pass. side i only have 1 top hole. I wonder if there is another way without going head hunting. ???

See if maybe the rear of the drivers side head has the 3 holes... if it does, you can swap the heads around left for right. They may be an old head swap. I think around 70 or so they made all the heads with the accessory holes like in the pic. I've never seen a head with one hole like yours. could someone have filled the holes in at some point?

my chevelle has the same problem and its a late 70's motor and heads and also my buddies 85 motor, all 3 have only 1 accesorry bolt hole for the alternator bolton the outside. The other forum 67-72 trucks one guy had the same thing and he just drilled and tapped a hole for the inside. Is that even possible, isnt the ports right there? ???
