Default Serpentine to v-belt

Currently have a gen vi 502 with serpentine setup.

Purchased a 177 blower off a 525sc

Looks like I will need to convert to v belt? Or can I keep the serpentine setup?

You can keep the serpentine setup. You will need to change you crank pulley to something that will accept a blower pulley. We use this one:

You may or may not need a spacer to get proper supercharger belt alignment. This pulley has 6 threaded holes in it so that you can bolt up a supercharger pulley of your choice to it.
Hope this helps,
Eddie

Yeah that would be simple. And a cleaner look than the v belts.

Not cheap lol. But a simple solution for sure. Thanks!

Eddie, I called CP about this pulley and frankly they were of very little help telling me it was set up for a 500efi and would not fit my engine.

So with that said I have my stock pulley and it seems too deep also the billet cylinder will not fit inside it to center the blower pulley.

I am assuming that this pulley you referenced will allow the blower pulley to seat and I will need to use some spacer behind this pulley?? If you or anyone can offer any solid help I would be thankful...looking to assemble the engine this coming week and bolt the blower on, I would like to handle this pulley situation monday.


Other option I guess is go v belt, I have a v belt pulley for the crank, alt and water pump, but I need to round up a power steering and sea pump one I would guess.

Thanks
Scott
