anyone got ideas on where to get a set of replacement pulleys for a 1974 big block corvette to allow use of a cog belt to drive the accessory's like the water pump, alternator, power steering etc.
my bother in law would really like to go that route (mostly for LOOKS but also to eliminate the belt slipping as belts that occasionally squeal make him rather nuts.
any info , you might have on conversion kits, suppliers ,or parts available, pulleys, belts, even if only loosely related to cog belt drives would be useful.

Big Block Chevy Gilmer Belt Pulley Kit
For sale is a brand new big block Chevy 396 427 454 belt drive and pulley kit. Kit includes 40.5" long belt, billet aluminum water pump and crank pulleys, plus chrome alternator pulley (bolt-on type). For use with long or short style water pumps with up to a 5/8" shaft.
Cogged 1 1/2" wide "Gilmer" style belt prevents slippage. Water pump and crank pulleys are a 1:1 ratio. Alternator pulley has outside lips to help keep belt aligned. Crank pulley has V-belt groove that can be used to run power steering. Requires a good top mount alternator bracket, stock or flimsy brackets will not work. Will not work with A/C equipped vehicles.
heres a set-up thats cheap enough but I don,t know if it will work until I call and ask a few questions
