302w belt routing

[Lake]

Guys, what is your opinion will this setup work or will the belt slip? Alternator bracket is missing, i know.

I can fix it so that there is own belt for alternator and another for wp and psp. What do you think?

I don't believe you have enough belt wrap on the crank pulley to keep it from slipping. The water pump pulley is marginal, but the slipping on the crank pulley won't be turning it very fast, anyway.

it will definitely slip at some point . i would do it correctly . i see no point in taking a big risk like that, especially on what looks like a new engine.

Thats the way belt was when I bought the car, but it was no runner. Engine is mystery to me, I just make it look pretty.

I think two belts is the right solution...

This is how the belt should be routed.

They need to be routed correctly using good quality belts.

Barnett has some good diagrams to follow.
