Yes they do - that aforementioned airpumpgotcha mate, yeh my 77 hasnt got the emission control stuff as we changed the engine and couldnt get it back on... but correct me if im wrong here but pre-1979 cars dont require emission control?!
ill advertise in the parts wanted section and see if i get any bites... i think this alternator has been on the way out for a while as it was whining pretty bad for years!
(all cars after June '76 until ~ '79 sometime...)
After that they magaed to ditched the airpump in favour of a more passive
scheme...
The < '79 cars had a double crankshaft pulley 'cos they had to drive
that airpump, as well as the alternator. I think that the outside one drove the
alternator, which was a hassle, since that required a different alternator bracket...
Anyway, I assume from your comment that you have a 'normal' pulley,
so I wouldn't worry about it - like Brackie says, no-one give a rats-xxxx
