Hi, I’m in the middle of rebuilding my 302 and I’m having trouble finding a diagram for the AC compressor and tensioner pulley brackets. How do they install? I lost all my pictures. I can’t remember how they go on.

Hi,

Because of the model year, I have very limited information. However, I was able to find a belt routing schematic that shows the locations of all of the belt-driven accessories. Take a look at the picture and let me know if it helps.

Take care,

Joe

It’s start in the right direction but it still kind of confusing i no longer have the smog pump. If I can just get the tensioner pulley bracket in the right spot everything else should fall into place.
