There is an original 2 groove cast pulley on ebay now but it is pricy -- although only about $100 more than the repro single pulley was priced.
I am not sure but I think the ebay pulley from walters-old-stuff might actually be part of Packards Southwest inventory because looking at their other items I recognize some AC parts that had been previously offered by Gerry at PackardsSouthwest. They are both in San Diego so you might check with them to see if they have any single pulleys. At one time I think Gerry did.
As to the repro pulley, I do not know if it is still available or even if Jack Nordstrom is still around. All the info on his pulleys and brackets has been removed from the 56 Golden Hawk site. If no one here has any current information you might ask a question on the Studebaker forum about Jack Nordstrom and his 56 Packard engine repro pulleys to see if anyone there knows if they are still available.
At one time Jack Vines had either some compressor brackets or maybe it was pulleys so you might check with him to see if any are available.
