SPOKED PS PUMP PULLEY ON A 94 6.5?

[spdgofast]

Has anyone tried one of these on a 94 6.5? I figured I might try one of these when I install the gear drive in my P400, has anyone done it already?

search here and hummernetworkforums.
Some guys used it with sucess and others it wouldn’t work because offset was slightly different. I can’t remember which was which.

If you buy it, you can measure out exactly where the belt will ride compared to your current one before removing yours.

what is the purpose of the swap?

Because when you have to remove the pump, you first have to remove the pulley to get the bolts out. Then reinstall pulley after pump is back on later. So with the spoked pulley, you can reach through and remove the pump without messing with the stupid pulley (and pulley removal/ install tool) ever again.

Except to swap the pulley to a new pump.

Yeah- True.

But anyone needing to replace their pump right now, I would send to the for sale section on that psc pump for sale at the moment.

I cut my teeth on small block chevy from the 60’s and 70’s. It sure is disappointing how much harder it is to work on the 6.5 than those. I really wish they had copied the accesory attachment, waterpump design, etc from the sbc/bbc.

I believe the PSC pump is sold, unless there is one I haven't seen. That was my plan because mines leaking and I could do my gear drive and PS pump at the same time.

Awe... yeah that one you responded to was the one I saw.

Gotta jump fast around here.
