Here is you an original one for a price: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1968-72-CORVETTE-3925522-SMOG-PUMP-PULLEY-CORVETTE-L88-/400230861186?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5d2f9e4982#ht_2018wt_1169 :o  Man this thing has been for sale for a long time.

What happened to your original?  My original air pump had a standard groove one on it, guess they must have run out of the right ones on the assembly  line and put on what they had available.  I know your VIN is just 50 away from mine so am wondering if you had the same problem.

 I'm still looking for one also but have not decided on who makes the best reproduction.  Maybe someone will let us know what the best deal is on the deep groove one.

i dont know if anyone else noticed it, but looking through Classic Industries catalog, they have a disclaimer on reproduction pulleys. it states that they are niot designed for over 6k rpm's or over 400 horsepower. i dont know if they are just covering their asses, or there is a problem with the repros.
FYI

I actually bought a set-up on E-pay just to see how many idiots I can get to tell me that only CA cars had them at the cruise night. The one I bought didn't have a deep groove on it and if I can buy a repop reasonable I will.

   I think I'll go to Wal-Mart and buy a "whisper 2000" so I can hear everything they say from the comfort of my lawn chair ;D
