I have had this question posted in the General Tech Forum for a few days with no comments. What do ya'll think about this?
I have been thinking about relocating the alternator to the lower drivers side of the engine. I don't want to remove the PS and AC compressor. My question is this. I am running a "piggyback" style underdrive pulley. The way I am planning on doing this, the PS and AC would continue to run off of the underdrive pulley. The relocated alternator will be driven by the factory pulley. Are there any problems with running accessories off of both pullies(vibrations, etc.)? Not only would this ease valve cover access, this will also allow me to run only the alternator at the track simply by removing one belt. Give me your thoughts.....:confused:
