Zetec Pulley Bracket Help!!
MattCraneCustoms - 17/11/06 at 10:42 PM

Hi all, plan to run a 2.0 Blacktop 1999 Zetec, and need to build a bracket to fit a pulley above the water pump. Could people post pics of what they have done? I am thinking of making something that bolts into the 2 standard engine mount bolts, just to neaten things up and blank the holes. Any thoughts on designs?
Cheers guys
Matt

Or something like this, done by Bertram in Holland.

Not enough belt on the crank pulley me thinks.

That second design rotates the alternator the wrong way. Or am I getting confused.

I think that too... He must have lots of space down at the height of the alternator... Many sevens seem to have a chassis rail there. Also crap from the road will be kicked onto the alternator that low down.

Hold on that seems to be in situ - what chassis are we talking looks massive...

if the ribbed part of the belt is on the crank pulley is the flat face of the belt on the alternator or are my eyes playing tricks ?????

It's a daihatsu charade alternator if i'm right and yes it turns in opposite direction. And yes the flat site runs the pulley of the alternator.

It's just another alternative.

BTW the person who did this, did it in a westfield if i'm correct.

Why not just use a water pump froma 1.8 zetec?

Much easier than putting an idle pully on teh engine???

This is a Black Top and the 1.8 water pump doesn't fit.
Have a look on

There is quite a bit on there about the Black Top and the various fittings used.
