Anyone who put the march serpintine pulley conversion setup on: Do you remember the part number from march was? I have a 302 standard water pump and mech fuel pump and only want to run crank, water,alt (no power steering, no air) March is in the process of moving to FL so there tech line is offline. How is the setup working, do you notice a difference?
I have that set up on mine although I dont remember the application. Been working great for more than 4 years. I'll see if I can find the receipt. I know I bought them from Summitt.
Call Rick at PA Performance http://www.pa-performance.com/ I got mine from them with the proper pulley for my 3G alternator and they had better prices than Summit.
I don't know if they make a kit that will work with the stock water pump. I had to change mine to an 89 crown vic pump to get the right mounting points and proper pump rotation. They base the kits off the newer 5.0 cars pump design.

Here is the kit I used: http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=MCH-1675&N=700+115&autoview=sku
I finally got ahold of March tech staff and now they do make a kit for normal standard rotation water pumps for those of us who don't wnat to change out water pumps. The kit is a little expensive summit wants 385.69. look under part number MCH-30180Brand:March Performance PulleysProduct Line:March Performance Ford 289-302/351 Windsor Serpentine KitsPulley Style:SerpentinePulley Set Styleerformance ratioPulley Material:AluminumPulley Finish:Clear powdercoatedCrankshaft Pulley Included:YesCrankshaft Pulley Grooves:6-groove, serpentineCrankshaft Nose Cover Included:NoWater Pump Pulley Included:YesWater Pump Pulley Grooves:6-groove, serpentineWater Pump Nose Cone Included:YesPower Steering Pulley Included:NoPower Steering Brackets Included:NoAlternator Pulley Included:YesAlternator Pulley Grooves:6-groove, serpentineAlternator Fan Included:YesAlternator Nose Cover Included:YesAlternator Brackets Included:YesAir Conditioning Pulley Included:NoAir Conditioning Cover Included:NoAir Conditioning Brackets Included:NoIdler/Tensioner Included:NoIdler Cover Included:NoIdler Brackets Included:NoHardware Included:YesBracket Finish:Clear powdercoatedBracket Material:AluminumQuantity:Sold as a kit.Notes:Fits models produced after June 1969.

I think that the 30180 is a kit that includes alt bracket and tensioner, the 1675(high water flow) and 1670 (performance) are just the pulleys (crank,water pump,alt) and you would just tighten like a vbelt setup. As long as the water pump pulley has belt groves its for standard rotation (belt runs over pulley), the reverse rotation pump pulleys are smooth. The 1670 runs around $180 http://www.marchperf.com/pg35.html
