Product Details
When it comes to engine efficiency, simple is better. One of the best examples of this is the serpentine belt, invented in 1979. Most new cars now use a single, flat serpentine belt instead of multiple V-belts to drive accessories such as the water pump, alternator, power steering pump and air conditioning compressor. It's called a serpentine belt because of the way it snakes around the pulleys. With a spring-loaded tensioner to keep the belt taut, the accessories don't need to pivot. This allows them to be mounted solidly producing less vibration. Rear wheel horsepower and gas mileage improve since the serpentine belt has little drag compared to the V-belts and it lasts up to 50% longer. You can update your classic Chevy engine to this modern standard with a Vintage Air FrontRunner serpentine drive conversion system from Eckler's Late Great Chevy. Add the following components to complete the FrontRunner drive conversion: Detroit Speed & Engineering Power Steering Pump (select from P/N 553270 thru 553273), DSE Power Steering Pump Hardline Pressure Tube (P/N 553277) and Robertshaw hi-flow thermostat (select either P/N 563818 or 563819) to accommodate the increased coolant flow rate of the Stewart water pump. Vintage Air's FrontRunner system is one of the most durable, compact and cool-looking serpentine drive systems available to car customizers today.
