im getting ready to put my 60 235 back together for my 46 2 ton.
i have opted for the relocation plate i have a new pump with the 3\8 pulley and an alternator with 3\8 pulley. the balancer on the 60 motor is larger than the old 52 motor should i run it anyway
or should i run the 52 hb withe the 5\8 groove and just let the belt run in the bottom of the groove.

By running a 3/8" belt with the truck balancer the belt will run deeper in the groove and in affect will reduce the diameter to very near the correct diameter for your pump.
