Serpentine belt kit

[IndyJimW]

For those who may be interested, Chevrolet makes a serpentine belt kit that fits ALL small block Chevrolet engines. The new Part # 19418818 and it sells at my Chevrolet dealer for $1129.69.

Kit includes brackets, belt, pulleys, bolts, water pump, alternator, power steering pump and a/c compressor.

I have run this system on my Avanti for 15 years.

Good luck all,

Jim Wood

That's a good deal considering all the included parts. Can you use a standard fan with that setup. If so, it's better than my setup that required an electric fan due to the distance between the drive and the radiator.

I have a ton of Chevy parts from the early 90's and found that the setup from most early 90's serpentine systems will work if you use the Camaro passengers side mounting bracket to keep the a/c unit low. You may also need to drill and tap one hole in the passenger side cylinder head depending on the year the head came from.

This is mine although the idler on the passengers side now has a Sanden Compressor replacing the idler pulley.
