Double sheeve water pump pulley?

I'm working on getting A/C into my Falcon. As prep, I have been looking at various pictures that I've collected of A/C in early Falcons. I have some pictures of a 62/63 Falcon that has a double sheeve (pulley) for the water pump. I can't say that I have ever paid attention to see if this was a rare aftermarket item or if some vehicles with the small six were factory equipt w/ a double sheeve on the water pump. I know there was a bolt on 2nd sheeve for the harmonic balancer (I have one of those) but I am running into packaging issues w/ the bolt on 2nd sheeve on the harmonic balancer and the fan blade and the radiator all trying to share the same space so being able to run a second belt off of the water pump to the AC comp looks appealing. I need to look into fabricating a double water pump pulley if I can't find one readily avialable.
 
The double sheave pulleys should be factory parts standard on the later 1960's Ford cars that came with factory AC look for parts from the 1967 up 200's :nod:
 
Finding a stock 2 groove water pump pulley for an early 200/170/144 is not an easy task. Mike sells one, however. Using a late two groove harmonic balancer and Mike's pulley will spin your pump and fan a bit faster (10% or so) to help move air and coolant on hot days.
