That is interesting.  Please tell me that the rotation for the water pump for the 3rd generation is oppisite that for the second generation.  I am using a simple belt scheme (everything turning the same direction).  But in your drawing the water pump is turning in the oppisite direction.  Yet I don't remember ever discussing that the pump rotation direction was different on the 3rd generation engines.

Dave Leonard  Dave, The rotation for the water pump on the 3rd generation IS opposite that for a second generation or the first generation for that matter.  Given the geometry of the layout and belt angles, it looks like they had to run it off the "back" of the serpentine belt. Ed Anderson
