Any reason that a smog pulley off the fan hub of a late 914 wouldn't work as the pulley to power a modern A/C compressor?

Yes BUT most of the rubber hubs are trash. Have to make sure you have a good one.


I've never seen a smog pulley in person - So is there a bearing where the "arms" converge (that the shaft runs through)? If so, can that bearing be changed out for renewal?

Regarding the worn out rubber piece.. seems like it would be a simple thing to have one machined out of steel/aluminum(?) - think that would work for using it as a compressor pulley?
