They cut the alternator bracket & drilled a new hole in it, so that it could be moved forward. The water pump pulley is misaligned from the crank pulley..so the fan belt is at an angle, & the fan is too close to the radiator...Now I have to undo this mess...My question..besides needing a new alternator bracket & water pump... will I need a new water pump pulley? - I'm guessing the Nova had a 230/250 ?? - If so does anyone make an aftermarket ?
