Do you have to be able to adjust the alternator so the belt does not walk off the pulley? Nice looking, getting ready for that blower I see!

the alternator has lips on it to keep the belt on. put you do want the alternator straight with the pulleys so the belt does run true

It looks cool. Did you change everything for a future blower set up? Gilmer drive is a bit overkill for a water pump and alternator, don't cha think?

I just liked the look. it is not on anymore it would not turn the alternator fast enough to charge.
