68 318 build need pics!
Newbie to the mopar forum. but I need a huge favor. trying to piece together my 318 that I tool apart years ago. now that I am at the pulleys I am having a tough time getting the right parts. I am going from a ac 318 to a non ac engine. my pulleys don't seem to line up. my waterpump pulley is dang near riding on a bolt to the waterpump. and is not lined up with the power steering pump. So my questions are... IF I am going from a AC motor to a non AC motor do I need different brackets and pulleys(V1 or V2)? AT this point I am not sure what to do... Anyone have good pics of their 68 318 or can tell me where I can get some info..
Thanks!
Thanks!

on the big block and i think the small block. the A /C water pump spins a diff speed than a non A / C. on the big block the A / C pump spins faster than the non- A / C pump. but the A /C pump has fewer blades. this is cause chrysler wanted to pull more air throu the rad. but it pumped to much water. i got this info from an old chrysler parts man.

thanks guys. I know I ordered a non ac water pump pulley and a non ac water pump. but I am not sure if this will work with my brackets because of my Ac set up before. they don't seem to line up properly. I heard AC cars had different brackets and power steering pumps. Can anyone confirm that ?

Looks like a shallower water pump pulley will line this up.
Looking closer I think your crank pulley is too long, I'd look at that first.

Thanks i found that once i put on my original crank pulley everything began to fit alot better but i do need to file a hole in the pulley to fit the new balancer. As far as the water pump pulley goes would it be a single or 2v pulley ? Its an ac set up but i will not be putting ac on.

The belt closest to the engine should go around crank, water pump and alt.
The power steering should be to the crank only.
Crank will be double groove all others single groove, if they are double with one unused, no big deal.
