<VV> one piece dual pulley?

Thats ok Timothy, you're incorrect in believing it's aftermarket.
;-)
I had sent Matt a note about it coming with my Greenbrier (from CA) that had lots of smog parts with the LM engine... a low hp manual.
This isn't the first solid DP I've seen, but I've always been partial to the 95hp engine... they're very forgiving, and work like a mule, and tweaked just right, can run like a jackrabbit.
Later,
Lonzo

Lonzo, You are incorrect. Not all Cali Corvairs had AIR in '66. If you had bought a Turbo Corsa it did not have AIR. Or an air conditioned car did not have AIR in '66. I have a number of AIR pieces as I am from there (45 years spent in So Cal). I still have a '66 AIR equipped 140HP Corsa. Kind of a strange beast. VERY RARE vacuum equalization tube on that guy.

Nope, not aftermarket... GM casting number on it.
In '66 ALL the Californy Corvairs had smogger pumps on 'em... hence the need for an extra pulley.
Mine is out in the shed... might be the weekend before I can dig it out, too... I also have the air cleaner "crossover" that has the "flat spots" for the diverter valves on the first series smogger (shown in the shop manual, I think)... it's a cool piece.

Lonzo

Hi Lonzo and Frank, If this is a 1 piece dual pulley I believe it is an 
aftermarket A/C pulley. Just my 2 cents. Timothy Shortle in Durango Colorado

it matches Ray's...
