I plan on putting a water pump adapter on my '54 1-1/2 ton which will be powered by a '62 235 from a '62 c-10. What is the ideal water pump pulley to harmonic balancer pulley ratio so the water pump isn't spinning too fast or slow?

You need a balanncer from 54 or earlier that takes the same width belt as your pump.

For the 3/8" belt an acceptable substitution is to use a 1955-62 truck balancer. This balancer is designed for a 1/2" belt but may be used with a 3/8" belt. This will allow the belt to run deeper in the groove and in affect will reduce the diameter to very near the correct size.


See the USA in your vintage Chevrolet!
