Thanks Keith, I was wondering. I see several both reman and NOS units and they show up in both sizes. Many say this number supersedes that number.
That explains it. Best, James From: Keith Boonstra <kboonstra.zeegroup@xxxxxxxxx> James, The AC clutches with the external brushes from the 50s through '59 or maybe 60 were about 7" diameter overall. After Chrysler went to the induction style clutch activators (about 1960) the clutch diameter was reduced to a little over 5".
That is what your K should have. I have both lying around and could measure them exactly for you later today. Please note that there will not be a performance difference between the two because even though the clutch diameters are widely different the sheave (pulley) diameter is actually equal between them. And they can use the same length of belt. Keith Boonstra -
