Managed to get my hands on pretty much everything i need for a York OBA install recently and was working on installing it today.
Ran into a bit of a problem though.
Belt routing seems weird. The alternator pulley (alternator relocated down under the york) lines up OK with the existing belt setup (need a longer belt however.
the york itself has a 2 groove pulley, the only logical place to hook it up would be to the power steering setup using one of the grooves that matches. I've got an idler pulley i'm not sure where to put as well.
Looks a bit like this: (forgive the crude drawing)
Red is the existing path of the PS pump, i dont have a smog pump on this motor.
black is the alt belt
green is where i think i need to go:
Any thoughts here regarding routing/clearance/belt size?
