Gary Lewis Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 My FB friend Trent Alexander has purchased some medium-duty parts and found that a 3G alternator for a 1994 F700 w/a 7.0L engine will have a double-groove/sheave pulley and both are the same size. The ID # on the pulley is F1HU-AB, which is shorthand for F1HU 10A352-AB and that crossref's to F1HZ 10344-A as a part #. And he sent these pics: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdWrknTrk Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Interesting, it has the 7" ears and is rated at 115A. 429's in the medium trucks have a very long crank snout so I'd do some checking on the amount of offset between boss and pulley sheave before I dropped nearly twice as much on one. Or are you just suggesting F1HZ-10344-A as a part number for the pulley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes the 429 has a long and strange snout as well as flywheel flange. Trent is wanting to use the Eaton tranny that he got with it but has discovered that it requires that crank, which means the other end will have the one-piece balancer/pulley combo. He's asked me questions about how to sort through all of this and I've suggested he join here and ask questions. I don't know but others may.

Well, I imagine that you could get that pulley through WAI or one of the other companies that supply alternator parts. (I'm not suggesting the company that owns the url 'alternatorparts.com') Now the other piece of the puzzle is a crank pulley.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty_S85 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Interesting, shame that I doubt it would work on my conversion thankfully I can do my mocking up while on the engine stand to make life easier on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lima Delta Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Now the other piece of the puzzle is a crank pulley.... Yeah, I pulled the crank pulley off a fully accessorized 302 thinking that I might use it someday on my 351 for a 3G swap. Wasn't until after I got it off and had a closer look that I noticed that while it has double grooves of the same diameter, one groove is narrower than the other... So I guess that's not going to work with the double alternator pulley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess that's not going to work with the double alternator pulley? I can't say for sure. If one groove of the crank pulley takes a narrower belt maybe you can use an alternator pulley that has one narrower groove used to drive the A.I.R. pump(s)? Finding two belts of different widths that will tension the same might prove impossible. IDK... I use one belt and just enjoy that my system charges quite well at idle. I haven't yet applied enough load that I get belt slip, but I don't have a winch or anything like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I cant as I will have to lose my A/C if I run a second belt to the alternator. But that will still be the biggest problem is trying to find a matched set so one belt doesnt try to spin faster than the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
