Pulley alignment problem
« on: August 24, 2007 - 08:13:27 AM »
I just bought a set of March pulleys and the crank shaft pulley is in about 1/8th of on inch from lining up with the water pump and alt. What are my options as to fixing this? Can I use a spacer of some kind? If so, who sells them that thin? Thanks.

I had tried to contact them last night around 6:00  with there new extended hours till 7:30 and got ahold of their voice mail box which was full. ( a little sarcasm there). I did find a place that sell shims for crank pulleys so I did order them just now. Thanks anyways.

If the shim plate doesn't work for you you should contact them. They have pulleys with some dimensional variations that could work for you that arent in their catalog on on their website. I went thru the same thing with them when I was setting up my SB.
