Crossover with dummy pulley
 

Anyone have experience with these from Hardin? has a dummy pulley on the front to replace a serpentine style circ water pump? Do they hold up? Bearings decent and replaceable?

Are there better options?

Thanks

Also in the market for one or another option if anyone has anything lol

post a link or pic of that you are looking for.

Those look nice! No experience with them but I might take a closer look at them those would be nice on my blower engines. Mine are the the 575sci and I’d like to ditch the factory water pump as well !

99% of the things Ive purchaced from CP/Hardin always exceeded expectations.
Theyre stuff is always very good quality.

Well I bought one...seems to be a very nice AMERICAN made unit according to the box. Need to get it powder coated and get to working on the serpentine install! :boat:

I have these on my boat and the only issue I had was using the bottom water inlet. When you put the 90 degree fitting in the bottom it hit the balancer so I bought a tap and was able to tap it some more so it wouldn’t hit the balancer. It worked but I can just about slip a credit card between the fitting and balancer. You can use the other 2 side ports to feed the engine also. I also had to go with a different belt size.

Oh yeah that is close! I have to wait to get everything installed to see what's gonna work. I'm hoping I can get my blower pulley past the crossover pulley without hitting!

Do you happen to have the brand and part number for the belt? Would save me a bunch of measuring and time if you happen to have it??

Looks good on there! Thanks for the reply!

Well....she's ready for powder coat along with a couple other items :evilb:

You can see that on his pic. :thumbs
just click on pic and enlarge it a little.

Is the front cover made of nylon? Or is it machined aluminum? Looks different than the base.

Just the angle of the pic..its all metal

I'll try zooming....saw it on there but my old eyes couldn't make it out lol
