Just converted my 66 Belvedere to disc brakes still have the drum assemblies. Good drums, shoes, bearings, hubs and spindles. Located on MS Gulf Coast.

I would like to thank both MCODECUDA and Snakeoil24 for the info. My 66 overheated last year with the Cold Case rad and OEM 5 blade fan. Bud suggested a clutch and fan setup. Ordered but clutch shaft was too long, "Now What". Read you guys post and Bam!, we're in bussiness. Thanks a bunch.

You may have drum brake spindles, check into it. My conversion kit came with spindles that match the brackets.

Had the same problem after installing a cable for the kick down. Attempted several adjustments but couldn't get it to shift into 3rd. Got a local shop to help, they found it needed a return spring on the kickdown lever. Spring was installed and problem solved. You may want to try this fix.

Welcome & congrats on the find. Can't wait to see your progress.

I noticed on Kern Dog's WP pulley it looks larger in Diameter than mine which is 6" in dia. This may also contribute to my issue. We'll see.

Thanks a bunch to all you Guys, this info is a big help. I did mention I had to shim the Water Pump pulley to keep it from binding on the pump housing. I'll try the crank pulley swap and see what haps.

Here is another twister for you guys. My 66 came with a 318 but the owner i got it from had put a 440 in it. I recently had to replace the water pump and found someone had used nuts between the pulley and the pump as shims. In the process I changed the Power steering pump to a Saginaw because I...
