I'm getting close to installing a '92 5.0HP into my '73. Just the basics under the hood. Alternator and power steering (no A/C or smog pump) so only 2 belts. I am having trouble getting an answer on the correct crank pulley. Would a basic 302 crank pulley line up the belts properly or do I need one specially for a 5.0? All of the 5.0 pulleys I see are for a serpentine belt. Do I need that with such a basic set up?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

go to a junkyard and search around for an older car with a 302 that didnt have AC or smog pump that will be your best bet

On the Bronco Graveyard web-site I found a crank pulley for an 80-86 Bronco 302 engine with no A/C but no mention of a smog pump. It's $25 vs $85 for a the polished aluminum one that they have in the early bronco section so it might worth the chance.

Thanks.
