Accessory Drives - Anyone using the March Performance Pro Track setup

[rocketrod]

....No balancer requirement reduces the cost of the kit.

I called March and they no longer offer the hub adapter for motors with truck accessories, which I have so a new balnacer maybe required

....

And the Pro Track kit, with water pump, with crank hub adapter, with PS, 140 amp Alt, and A/C can be bought for under $2K on the sale at the store.

Same phone call they stated it's 105 amp alternator.



The other thing that can be misleading is the cost of for a powdercoated a/c and alternator is an additional $50 for each component. This is not to bash them in anyway, as I still think this is a very good price, but I just wanted to post what I found out....

Now for the positives...the water pump and tensioner are not custom pieces and are available thru your local parts stores. I believe the same is true for the power steering pump, but I don't remember for sure. The a/c compressor is a standard sd-7 and the alternator is a powermaster piece.

The price is locked in with us, same cost for powder coat of polished. Other dealers may charge more, I do not know, but we are a direct distributor and cut our own deals.

And no matter what you heard from March, our systems WILL include a 140AMP alternator. Not sure weather the guy you talked to was reading from their website but I have a comitment our systems will have 140AMP as all these LS based cars will have electric fan systems and obviously A/C if your buying a A/C drive system.

You are correct. If you have a balancer / pulley (all in one) from a truck, you will have to do either a F body or Corvette balancer (add hub adapter) or aftermarket balancer and add hub adapter. To protect the budget the factory balancer will be way less then a Fluiddamper or the likes for sure

is there a way to get the AC adapter line in something other than chrome?

Actually the chrome adapter line option is a mistake on my store. That system comes with a side exit compressor and we include the compressor adapters with all our kits
