I just had my crank and damper changed and I put all the pulleys on. The crank pulley is 1/2 inch to short to line the belt up with alt pulley and water pump pulley. The pulleys I have are march pulleys. If anyone can point me to a longer crank pulley it would be appreciated.

You may need to shim it. You can buy these on line.

I had the same thing when I went to a streetdampr. Had to buy a specific crank pulley spacer made by March that came with longer bolts. works great
