Pontiac V8 Rebuild, Part 18:  How to install a March Performance Serpentine Belt System Bracket

Subscribe to watch Mike finish this engine build and re-install it into his 1969 Pontiac GTO Restomod, in his home garage! If Mike can do this at home, so can you! “How to install a March Performance Serpentine Belt System”, is Part 18 of this Pontiac 400/455 rebuild, but can be applied to all motor types. A serpentine belt cleans up your engine bay, and provides a much more reliable way to run all of your engine accessories; Power steering pump, A/C compressor, Alternator, and Water pump. No more throwing Belts!

This particular video is the installation of the March Performance “Style Track” Bracket and Idler Pulleys only. Here’s how to install the water pump: https://youtu.be/QQeZftsMuZk I will post an all inclusive installation video, AFTER I get the Motor installed back in the car. Enjoy!

NEW! FMG MERCHANDISE available! Here’s the online store for shirts (pick a color), and face masks, (Grey, Black, or Red) https://fmgmerch.threadless.com/

This is a very thorough description of what to do, how to do it, and what to watch out for. Mike is in the middle of rebuilding his Pontiac 400, which is now a Butler Performance 467, because a Roller Lifter Broke! (see link below). Enjoy!
