I like the look of that. I'm thinking the car in the picture has a rear mounted radiator and no heater? I'm going to be running the small Vintage Air heater only unit under dash so I will need to have the lines for that as well...

Small, low mount alternator and idler pulley would be the ideal amount of accessories running of the crank for this. I'm using electric steering column with tilt and no A/C.

Your way was what I would have done if stock pump could stay.

I saw somewhere Davis pumps specs. Zero (0) perssure at full speed?!?!
BMW Piersburg still has 0.5 Bar / 7psi at full tilt. Friend off mine has run one of these for years in his twin turbo sbf.
Easy to buy (ebay.de) and cheap ~250€.
