Re: Astron Serpentine
Magna ones for the crank, and you can run a magna alternator as well. Not sure about the waterpump though. As long as you can find something with the correct offset for the belt it could be redrilled to suit if need be.

Re: Astron Serpentine
Don't forget the Magna Power Steering pump as well, or you could probably pinch the pulley of it to run the water pump.
Cheers.

Re: Astron Serpentine
Any of the Astron Magna pulleys should work, they are found in TM to TS Magnas.
The Magna power steering pump uses a standard V belt so you will need to work out something else for it. Maybe pinch one from a Commodore if you can find one that doesn't leak.

Re: Astron Serpentine
Chris,
The TR's and TS's use the Serpentine belt for the Power Steering.
Here's one I took off a TS, along with an M7 head and alternator.
Just a note, I believe the timing mark is in a different place on the Magnas. Can someone confirm this?
Cheers.

Re: Astron Serpentine
I didn't realise the later Magnas had serpentine power steering pumps.
The timing marks are different, on the Sigma they are in the 1 o'clock position, on the Magna they are in the 11 o'clock position.
I don't have a pulley here that i can measure up.
