what is the difference between the max wedge pullys and hemi race pullys and the ones your looking for.

The '64-'65 Hemi damper and pulleys all have Hemi only part numbers but, never having seen them, I can't say what the difference(s) are.

Jim Kramer would know.

---

Chrysler themselves couldn't keep it straight as far as the part numbers.They listed the damper under quite a few preceeding numbers.The 64/65 race only thin damper is list as P-2532795,P-3830183 and P-5249698 the thick NASCAR and street Hemi is listed as P-2532202,P-3870854 and P-5249699.The 440/383 wedge was also listed as P-3830183(the same as the race Hemi)Chrysler also claimed the timing marks differ from the thick and thin damper.GO FIGURE,to add to all the confusion there is a mismatch of superceeding numbers from way back.Also a hodpodge of pulleys with different size,ratio,depth and diameter.Who wants to be the expert and claim the exact part#s and discription.NOT ME

I thought 64/65 race Hemis had the thin damper All the race dampers I aquired from Chrysler were of the thin variety.66 and up street Hemis used the thick one.

I was told my rebuild of a 68 SS Cuda originally had 65 A-990 pulleys,????

So BOB, why do you not want to answer me on sizes & if you want to sell any ?

---

Jeff,I'am not trying to sell anything,I'am not going to tell anyone which pulleys are the exact size.We are not in the restoration(hype) business.Anyone who wants to come to the shop and dig through the tons of junk is more than welcome or if they want to send the
demensions of the pulleys they are looking for I may have one of the guys look for them.As stated having been through that era and seen the hodpodge and mismatch of what Chrysler put out with the max-wedge and Hemi cars nothing seem to surprise me and I'am not going to be the one to say "this is the fact or part"and get in a pissing match with all the Gurus.Best to contact Jim Kramer.I sold(gave) him his first race car.

OK Bob, my mistake, sorry, just needing someone to let me know "to the best of their knowledge"
What size pulleys were used on the 68 SS cuda, as I have read the 65 A-990 hemi cars, pulleys were used as that's what was available, unfortunately I have no idea what size the A-990 were either, so thinking you have probably seen a LOT of original stuff, a BEST GUESS would help !!!! And if you happened to have some for sale, I need them, so as of today, I think I need a alt & water pump pulley from a 65 A-990 hemi,.....thanks, and PS, I understand about the guru contest,,,,,,,

Here is a picture of I believe a 1965 Race Hemi. It was posted on another post. I can not find the picture I have of the 1964 motor. B G Racing is correct in his evaluation of Chrysler Parts from 64 and 65. There were 3 different heads put on the 1964 Hemi alone.

---

Same one i posted in my reply. i got a few of them myself. crank pulley and water pump pulley all deep groove.

Sorry Chris, I thought you said this alt pulley was 3 1/4", which is correct ?
and it appears to be more like 3 3/4" in the picture. And yes "YOU" are correct I do not know what I need, "SO all the LOOKING"
as I get different answers.
The 65 A-990 Alt pulley was,,,, 3 1/4, 3 3/4" ?
And gang I have e-mailed Kramer a few times with no results !

---

Yup,more experts and Gurus,they will boggle your mind. Buy a set of Repops and move on. Anyone with originals will want a arm and a leg and they probably won't be correct or the real deal.Good luck with Kramer

Agreed ! What Do you think the Alt diameter pulley is ?
Do you have a Brass Tee fitting, fuel line , 3/8" center and 5/16" both ends ?

Called Kramer, their alt pulley measured 3 7/8"
I'm buying that.
Don't know why Hemi Eddie is selling a 3 3/4" stating original copy for 65 or 68 hemi cars. :whi

Jeff,come on up to the hogpen and if you find what your looking for you can have it.Screw those restoration and purist high dollar "Ripoffs" What is an "Original copy"?ROTFLMFAO,should read a copy of the original

Keeping in mind the 64/65 race hemis were desiginated for drag and oval track racing, that as mentioned, the engines could have come with a variety of pully configerations either buy design or mistake from Chrysler either in production or over the counter sales.
We check 4 different pulleys(suposedly stock) and depth of v and diameter varyied from 1/8 to 1/4 inch.Depth of pulleys are quite different for the thick and thin dampners as well as some dual crank NASCAR style flush pulleys that used spacers.Some have a heavy rolled edge and others a thin rolled edge.There is no solid definite answer since Chrysler outsourced some of the production.Some were made by American Auto Parts,Dana and other MFGs.I'll leave any and all exacting deminsions to the "experts".Find a set the looks and fit correctly and be happy

.593 sound ok for an oval track crank pulley? Belts are a matched set 3/8 wide. They look like they sit down pretty good and won't get tossed at 6.5K.
Found a water pump pulley with grooves at .687. Belts look almost lost in that one. But they sit like the vintage photo I have of the engine I'm restoring. (got REAL lucky there...)

Thanks for the reply!
