Magneto and belts
I think I might made a misstake with my set-up on wateter pump belt and a magneto.
Block is 59BA.
Generator is a 37 on a PM intake.
Crank pulley, dont know but I think seller said it was a dual now cutted and will work to generator.
Waterpums its just mock-up and pulley is rather tight but I’m not shore if its 59BA or 8AB.
Cam cover is 8AB so magnet is a early Scintilla but lower part is for the 8AB.
I had the idea to get a 3-bolt cam cover and angle adapter but I realise it would be very hard on both short and the longer adapter and a fan ( ex 32 ) no matter of angle on magneto ( did not like electrical fan )
I did try to seek on Hamb ’wanted’ on both angle adapter and a magnto but not much calls ( junk ) or Very expensiveeven tuff shape.
So one day I came over the magneto for a resonable price and a nice tag but it was foot for a 8AB.
But magneto was burned so Cirello in LA has now fixed it, so with a NOS cap, NOS pointers, cam cover and all car time ( cost ) and freights, repairs its now a expensive unit. I guess way over 2K in it.
But I mock it upp fast here and where belt is there the magneto body.
It must be impossible with this set-up of pulley ( or ) ?
I thought this was the ’easy’ way, not as cool as a angle drive.
Hard to get pictures but here is the set-up.
Ideas how to solve this.
