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 />
