large 10 gauge will need to be extended to the large post on the back side of the new alternator. You will then need to determine<br />

which of the small wires is hot when the ignition switch is on. The hot wire will then need to be extended to reach the number 1 terminal<br />

on the GM alternator. You must then install a jumper wire between the 10 gauge terminal and the number 2 terminal. Use the original<br />

GM plugs to make sure the connections are properly fitted.<br />

K. PULLEY SYSTEM:<br />

The belt system required to drive the alternator, water pump, power steering, and air conditioning can all be accomplished with a<br />

two belt system. If a three belt design is attempted, you will find that the length is too critical for radiator clearances. With the two<br />

belt system, you will be able to drive the alternator, water pump, and crank on one; the air conditioning, water pump, and crank on<br />

the other. Make sure that the air conditioning and alternator brackets are adjustable. The Serpentine belt system found on newer<br />

motors also works excellent.<br />

L. WATER PUMPS & THERMOSTATS:<br />

Chevy engine installations have the option of either a long or short water pump. The long style<br />

water pump is most commonly used on Chevy blocks. The stock bracketry on most V6 & V8s<br />

is designed to be used with a long style water pump. A short water pump will give additional<br />

radiator clearance; however, accessory brackets are sometimes hard to come by. We offer<br />

a high performance brand of water pumps and thermostats for Chevy V6 & V8 conversions.<br />

On Chevy & Ford blocks with a Serpentine belt system, these blocks can<br />

usually retain this stock belt system. They will normally provide<br />

sufficient clearance for your radiator. Be careful if you replace the<br />

water pump on a Serpentine system since they usually rotate in the opposite direction.<br />

FLOWKOOLER Pumps:<br />

P/N 25-1668 - GM short water pump (1955-91 Chevy). This water pump is 5-11/16” long.<br />

P/N 25-1759 - GM long water pump (1955-91 Chevy). This water pump is 6-15/16” long.<br />

FLOWKOOLER Thermostats:<br />

P/N 25-1600 - 160 degree high flow thermostat<br />

P/N 25-1800 - 180 degree high flow thermostat<br />

(All brass and copper construction with a “balanced sleeve”)<br />

M. POWER STEERING:<br />

You can utilize your original stock power steering pump by fabricating a mounting bracket to fit your new block. The original hoses<br />

can usually be retained without modifications if the stock pump is retained with a custom fabricated bracket. However, we recommend<br />

utilizing a stock power steering pump and bracket from the engine that you are installing.<br />

For example: When installing a Chevy V8, you would use a standard GM power steering pump. The only modification needed would<br />

be to couple the GM pump to the <strong>Toyota</strong> box. This can be accomplished by having a custom power steering hose made in which<br />

one end is a Chevy fitting to fit the pump, and the opposite end is equipped with a fitting for the <strong>Toyota</strong> box. This installation would<br />

only require one custom hose - which is the pressure hose. The return line is simply a rubber hose with steel fittings couple together<br />

with hose clamps. This same procedure will work for Chevy V6, Buick V6, and Ford V8 installations.<br />

N. AIR CONDITIONING:<br />

<strong>Toyota</strong> used three different types of air conditioning compressors. Each type of compressor will require a custom bracket to be made<br />

for your new engine. We recommend that the compressor be located on the passenger side so that the original A/C lines can be<br />

retained without modifications. If you don’t want to fabricate your own brackets, a simpler way is to retain the air conditioning<br />

compressor on the new engine. The stock <strong>Toyota</strong> air conditioning lines can be spliced to the new engine A/C lines very easily. Check<br />

with your local automotive parts store for an A/C splice kit. This eliminates any requirement for custom compressor bracketry.<br />

O. FLYWHEELS & STARTER MOTORS:<br />

The starter motor must match the flywheel that you have on your engine.<br />

GM engines: You will be able to use either a 153 tooth & 168 tooth flexplate.<br />

Buick engines: On both automatic and <strong>manual</strong> applications, you will be limited to a 160 tooth flywheel/flexplate.<br />

Ford engines: On Ford blocks, you will be able to use either a 157 tooth or 164 tooth flywheel/flexplate.<br />
