    problem with the belts and pullies on my swapped in 351c

    I don't know the details of what you are doing but I have had good luck on a couple of vehicles by purchasing a total loss vehicle from an insurance company and parting out what I don't need.If you are thinking of going that route, do some research first as to the saleable items on the vehicle...
