I don't understand. Have you changed the pulleys and alternator to use the original t3 ones - or are you keeping the 1y setup?
I know it's obvious that you have changed because the 1y setup isn't a v belt - but I thought I would check.

I wasn't aware power steering was on the same belt - that's why there is a double pulley? Interesting.

Do you want to sell me the power steering set up? I need everything the pump, brackets and the extra pulley.
