[Tigers] Ford Fairmont Pulley

Mine is from a Mustang (probably the same engine as the Fairmonts of
that era). I shouldn't have said anything about its diameter relative to
the Tiger's - I've never had a stock Tiger pulley to compare it to. The
pulley I had did give the proper setback required (on the original pump)
to line up with the original Tiger crank pulley, without having to
reverse the flange on the pump or enlarge the hole in the pulley. My new
pump required a small adjustment in the flange location on the shaft.

	Theo,
	Didn't you say that yours was from a Mustang and was the same
diameter as the Tiger?  The Fairlane pulley is smaller than that.  I
think this is a different animal.

		Mine definitely has only one sheave, and it was made
that way at Ford.

		Up here AC is still not a universal option... and back
in the late 70's

Ford to put a

there are quite a

think they'd save
		money by using common parts wherever possible.

		    I got one from a wrecking yard in either Arizona  or
Texas.  The
		people there said it didn't come as a single groove.
