I've got a flippin' boatload of Mopar engine pulleys that I've pulled off cars I've parted, from roughly 1982 through the late '90s. All of these pulleys came off engines from 1965 through 1978; mostly big-blocks, but a few small block engines and a 225 Six.

Is there a webpage anywhere that pictures various Mopar pulleys? Perhaps with a part or casting number and a description with application for each? A few, I do recognize, but some have me scratching my head.

I've seen webpages that show the different Mopar BB oil pans and applications; as well as another that shows most of the Mopar air cleaners and applications used from 1958 - 1980. Yet another shows the harmonic balancers over the same year spread. Anything like that for pulleys?
 
I have a bunch as well and haven't found any reference on the net. I do know that there was a change in the bolt pattern for the crank pulley in '71 I think? So there are early and late ones, it's a start.
 
All of my old car magazines got wiped out in 2003, and I quit subscribing to all of them after that, so my reference material is pretty much gone, unfortunately.
 
I was building a 440 some years ago for an A-body, and I had to scour the Earth for pulleys. I believe they changed the crank pulley after 1971; the bolt patterns are different (one is symmetrical, the other is asymmetrical.....I believe the latter is a later pulley, but I am not certain). There were a couple of changes to the water pump pulley some time thereafter (I believe the more shallow ones are later pulleys, whereas the more concave ones are for earlier engines) and the A/C compressors (along with their pulleys) changed also. I did a bunch of research on it at the time, but my notes are not handy at the moment. I know I haven't given you much information, but I hope it puts you in the ballpark.
