Anybody useing march's pulley sets? I'm wanting to take my 79 302 and put one of these sets on there but I can't find one that works. II only have the alt. crank and water pump pulleys and a standard rotation water pump and driver's side inlet.
 
You didn't mention if you're looking for std. V-belt pulleys, underdrive, high flow, serpentine, etc. For my 351W with a drivers side wp, I used March #30380 (serpentine) kit for crank, alt, & wp. Everything fit great.

For a 302 w/ drivers side (std rotation) water pump, alt & crank, their catalog lists #30180 for the serpentine. For the V-belt performance series (underdrive) it's 1610 and 1647 for the high flow. I called them a couple of times before I bought mine & they were real helpful (734)-729-9070.
 
well, here is the problem. Some how of another I have a 3 bolt dampner with my engine? I'm pretty sure that thing came off a 289 as everything listed for a 302 from march's is 4 bolt as the only thing for 3 bolt is passenger side water pump. I guess I'm going to have to get a diffrent dampner if I want to switch to the serpintine setup. I called them today and I'm need to go home and measure from them water pump flange to the dampner face and call them back. They said they might be able to work something out.
