Can someone tell me what the last year that they made the water pump pulley with groves for a serpentine(before the reverse water pump with the smooth pulley)

Beatcha to it, Max. Been talking with Mike (fishtail) for the past few hours, and this was one of the things we've been pondering. No definitive answer....yet! Stewart [This message has been edited by Stewart (edited 09-16-2002).]

Hmmm I should ask, why are you asking? This is something I"m not sure of...I know that all 87 and up 5.0s are the reverse rotation pump. My friend just got an 85GT, so once I poke around under that hood I'll be able to verify if the older fox's have the threaded pump, or the reverse rotation pump. But at this point I'm going to have to say that I don't know offhand. I'll look around some, if I come across the answer, I'll be sure to post it.------------------

ok did some checking. Looks like my gut was semi right. I told stew that I think 85 would be different since it got the roller motor(hence 84 and prior). I was both right and wrong. They list both for that year(so they are different sorta), and they list 6 and 8 ribbed pullies. So, it looks like 85 is your number and you need to be careful with the selection. 86 and up should all have the reverse rotation pump since they are all the SEFI motor(even though there are cam/tb/head/piston differences). ------------------

I may be wrong, but I always thought that all the V8 Mustangs from 79 up used the serpentine belt with a reverse rotation water pump.------------------

Indeed, I did a lot of searching in parts manuals and books looking for a stock pulley setup for the 82-up balancer. (I needed it for my Maverick). All 79-up Mustangs ran a serpentine belt. All 79-up Mustangs ran reverse rotation water pumps. By definition, this means they had to have a smooth pulley. You can't have a ribbed pulley turn backwards.The trucks ran v-belt setups until they went to reverse rotation water pumps as well (in 1986 I believe for the 302). But your holy grail  the full size Ford ran a regular rotation water pump until the 4.6 came along (1991). So you can find a ribbed serpentine belt pulley there. ------------------

Charlie is correct on all except the trucks. 85 351 was still "V" belt, 302 went to serpentime.  ------------------

Ok thats odd, because I went onto carparts.com last night and started looking up waterpumps until I found one with ribbed pullies. They list a standard rotation water pump with a ribbed pulley for 1985. I guess I need a new way to verify things ------------------

Max, a serpentine belt is sometimes called the fan belt. It's the belt hooked to all those accessory pullies and crank pully on the front of your engine. Stewart

LOL, well not really.....but I was trying to come up with an answer for something I didn't know quickly, and it seemed like a good idea at the time. Although, being that I work at a garage, and knowing how often we get the wrong parts from parts houses even though it's what they list....I should know better. Live and learn I don't apparently .------------------

Just for Boss302's benefit, the "serpentine" was a slang shop term for that "new fangled" belt that "snaked" it's way through the front of your engine. That from an old Ford mechanic buddy of mine when asked on the origination of the word... Either way, it means the same thing, I've always known it as a serpentine... guess old terms are starting to fade... --mark

Actually Brandon, everyone else here is full of sh*t. A serpantine belt is made from snake skin. It has far better adhesion and wear characteristics than the normal rubber belts. Haven't you ever heard of snake skin boots? They last forever. ------------------
