I have some of these 6-71 Jimmies that I need to convert over to belt drive. Anyone have any connections for drives and hubs for these ???

Any info on converting them ?
 
contact BDS....Blower Drive Services, they build aftermarket blowers for gas applications but the last time i knew they were still buying detroit blowers for good money, see if they have parts.....
 
I think it was around 800 bucks for the last one I had converted at bds. that was including a new front cover with a relief valve and oil level window. Alot cheaper to convert than to buy new. New 6.7-1's are around 3k unpolished and the converted diesel ones have much stronger cases.
 
on bds web sight a 350sbc kit is $3500

drive kit (pulleys belts drive snot and adjuster) is $1500
ends plates are $200
intake is $500
your at $2200 and still need carb mount adapter and the cost of the blower if you dont have one
