I have posted questions before and I thank everybody for the responses. I am rebuilding a Shelby Cobra Kit car with a 460. It was assembled and damaged 15 years ago and was only driven 75 miles. The previous builder and owner mentioned that he had an overheating problem at an idle. Per an earlier post I ordered a new alternator and had a custom aluminum radiator fabricated. Now here is my question pertaining to pulley sizes. It has under driven pulleys and they just look wrong. I did not measure down in the v groove, but the outside dimensions are as follows... Alternator 3.50"...Water pump 6.94"...Crank 5.69".
Can anybody tell me what a proven combo is and if these are close. I believe the alternator is turning way to slow at at an idle to do any charging. The car is apart now and I have no way to test it. I want to assemble it with the right parts.
Thanks again
