Mine should be here monday, I'll post my thoughts on it then.  It's pretty expensive (around $715), and doesn't include A/C compressor (won't work with stock) or belts.  Jegs has a compressor that'll work with it -- http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?lang=-1&catalogId=10002&storeId=10001&categoryId=23269 - which adds another $200 to the overall cost.  Personally, I'm already getting a classic auto air kit that comes with the compressor anyway, so that made no diff.

No problem Defiance...you just helped me figure out how costly it would be to swap to the aftermarket pulleys for an AC car. Thanks! I wont have to call them now.

Cool!  Feels good to actually contribute in some small way instead of just soaking up all the great info here :P

Incidentally, I do like the kit so far.  Extremely nice looking, everything mounts quite a bit more solid than stock, the adjuster rod tension adjustments are freakin' heaven sent after trying to hold tension while tightening (I don't have a helper!)...  I had to get a new power steering pump, though; the one that was on my car... well, let's just say I still haven't figured out what it actually *goes* to, but it's not from any charger I've found!! :)  And I'm still waiting on the A/C compressor, but the brackets are all on and the water pump/alternator system is just amazing in comparison :)
