    Still hoping someone can source me the part like one in picture above. And also need the coil bracket that holds the tensioner and other idler.
    I am hoping to soon be able to make aftermarket pedestal but want stick one to reference from. Seems all SC cars around in jy u can pull parts at are stripped. I just installed new rad as mine was ****. Figured out had to trim about 1/4" all around as sc rads take different fan setup. I will say the 1800radiator kit I got through work was awesome, new rad, hoses clamps and cap all in one box and I even got package of candy(thier little gimick) all for $135ish! Had to go through work as I am using payroll deduction. But let me say when car ran with temp couple notches above half it cooked 23.6 mpg, now back with stock tstat it's back to low 20s. I will see what new wires and plugs do as it was 69k engine but is at/over 100k now. But man it loved little warmer running temps. If I could swap to Evanscooling coolant I'd try to run her at around d 225 all the time. Tuned buddy's race car at 230 with Evans coolant, and it loves extra heat, especially when he hammers NOS. 300 port shot and 225 plate system is LOT of NOS. Comes back with sweaty intake and carbs.

    You're right! I've been to all three major junkyards every weekend and they all are either broken or the pulleys are rust welded. If you are ok with the pulleys being rusted, I can get access to some. Was supposed to be buying a set from three different people on facebook or craigslist, but all three flaked out! I don't know what it is these days about people not wanting to sell their sh** when they post it! I'll keep my eyes out though!
