Description

Heavy-Duty Cooling Meets Compact Power Steering

Here’s how to dump those troublesome V-belts and upgrade your Small Block Chevy (SBC) to a modern serpentine drive system with maximum air conditioning performance.

We designed this system for builders who want the higher cooling capacity of a full-size Genuine Sanden HD compressor (SD508 or SD709) teamed up with the space-saving Type 2 power steering pump and remote fluid reservoir.

Whether you are building a classic truck, a street rod with a large cabin, or a high-performance cruiser driven in extreme summer heat, this system gives you full-size A/C output and added clearance for steering boxes and control arms.

We also offer this HD compressor bracket paired with the larger Saginaw P-Series power steering pump. Check out part number K10810 for that combination.

Why Choose the Sanden HD System?

Maximum Climate Control Performance: The Sanden HD series delivers significantly higher refrigerant displacement than mini compressors. We specifically recommend the Genuine Sanden SD709 (SD7H15) (See Kwik part number 10300-01) for maximum cooling volume and smooth, quiet operation at higher RPMs.
No Belt Slip or Squeal: Our spring-loaded automatic tensioner keeps continuous tension on the 6-rib serpentine belt under all engine loads and throttle changes.
Driver-Side Versatility: The driver-side bracket architecture is designed for the readily-available CS130 style alternator found on 1988-95 Chevy trucks.. We offer a higher-output, 140 amp PowerMaster as an option (part number 47861). This bracket mounts a Type 2 pump teamed with a remote reservoir. We offer a pump kit with a pre-installed 5.5” pulley and a custom 90-degree hose barb for easy reservoir connection (part number 10206-06 for the pump and K10267 for the remote reservoir).
Other options: If you don’t need this extra cooling capacity or need a more compact package, we also offer two kits that feature the Sanden Mini A/C compressor, K10323 and K10324.

FAQs

Q: What is new about this Small Block Chevy (SBC) serpentine accessory drive system?

A: We have expanded our SBC serpentine lineup to support full-size Genuine Sanden HD air conditioning compressors (SD508 and SD709). While our standard K10323 and K10324 systems feature the compact Sanden Mini compressor, these new kits upgrade the passenger-side A/C bracket to hold larger HD compressors while keeping the proven driver-side alternator and Type 2 power steering pump.

Q: Which A/C compressors fit the new passenger-side bracket?

A: The bracket is engineered to fit standard Sanden SD508 and Sanden SD709 compressors. We stock and recommend the Genuine Sanden SD709 (SD7H15) for maximum displacement and quiet operation at higher RPMs.

Q: Why would I choose a Sanden HD compressor over a Sanden Mini?

A: The Sanden Mini (SD7B10) is ideal for tight engine bays, but the Sanden HD series delivers significantly higher refrigerant displacement and overall cooling capacity. If you are building a truck, a vehicle with a large interior cabin, or driving in hot climates, the HD compressor provides superior climate control performance

Q: What power steering pump is compatible with this kit?

A: We offer a Type 2 power steering pump that comes with a 5.5” pulley and a custom 90-degree hose barb already installed. If you prefer the larger Saginaw P-Series pump, check out part number K10810.

Q: Which alternators fit this system?

A: This system is engineered specifically for the CS130 alternator using the mounting configuration found on 1988 through 1995 Chevrolet pickups. Older 10SI and 12SI alternators do not fit this bracket arrangement. If you need higher electrical output than a standard factory replacement, we offer a 140-amp Powermaster CS130 alternator.

Q: How does this system handle belt tensioning?

A: Like all of our complete serpentine systems, this kit uses a spring-loaded automatic belt tensioner. This maintains continuous, proper belt tension under all engine loads, preventing belt slip and eliminating manual adjustments.

Q: How do I select the correct serpentine belt length?

A: We provide recommended belt lengths and Gates part numbers in our installation instructions. You can also consult our complete Gates belt chart in the instructions section on the product page if you need to fine-tune your belt selection once your accessories are mounted.
