These sketches will be very helpful, thanks a million. To answer about the pump drive, I found a new 3 stage Weaver pump. Gaerte Racing gave me a great deal on it as they are using a different style now. Using the standard 1" wide cog belt drive off the crank. Bought a drive and pulley set from Weaver but pitched the alum. crank flange as it was too weak to support the serpentine belt pulley mounted on its end. I chose to design and build the serpentive drive set-up from scatch as I hate cheezy looking turnbuckles and rod ends to support an alternator. A bit of work but it's polished and anodized and looks pretty sharp. You can tell I like talking about this stuff, love to hear what other guys have done in tight spots or to be different...that's why I went with the Tremec 6 speed gearbox, just to be different...
