Warped pully?

Ladies and Gentleman,

My bottom pulley is warped. It bounces around. I got the truck timed the other day and the mechanic was fairly sure that it wasnt the harmonic balancer. I went to the junk yard to get a new one and came home with one off of a mid 70's caprice but it messed up the belt alignment really bad.

Has anybody tackled this problem? Should I just go with aftermarket pulleys all around? If I do find a set should I also take the power steering pump pulley?

Thanks everybody.

Sorry. It's a 1965, the engine is a 350. Block is from a 71 Impala.

Re: Warped pully?

Well, I'm cheap so I'd probably take mine off and keep searching the junk yards or craigslist. But, some on here might suggest a new pulley set up altogether. I guess part of it might just depend on whether or not you're concerned with the look. Sorry, I don't have any pulleys that would fit that or I'd help you out.
