What size engine? You don't need to change the heater box. You might need to get a new water pump pulley with different grooves but I cant really remember. The actual belts themselves are no problem getting. You need to look from the side and line up your pulley grooves by eye, then you will have a better idea as to what you need. Sometimes you can get by with 1 belt running to the alternator but I always run 2.

ok thanks i have a 360 in the dodge and was just trying to figure out exactly what i need to do i just removed the engine and am starting the rebuild

I think if you have any questions on how to configure it, partially assemble all the pullies,etc before you put the engine back in and it will be easier to see what you need. You can always take the pullies,etc off before you put the engine back in. :)

no cars ever had 8 lug rims, i have a 79 without a lift kit and i run it with 33" BFG mud terrains, where you have a 3/4 ton you should be able to fit 35" unless you have the hevy half ton wich is just a 1/2 ton pickup with 3/4 ton leaf springs
