Norm phone me around 8am your time 916-747-0051 or give me your number. I am going to take it apart and pollish it and take pictures of modifications I did, but I want to get the belt problem solved first.I can tell you over the phone what I have done, but it sounds like some brackets are not the same ?
Hi guy's cut a larger hole in radiator support for K&N filter. Also motived hood lock down bracket to clear intercooler.At a standstill untill idle pully gets here. Walt
The other way to do it is to use countersunk 82 degree socket head capscrews or countersunk bolts. The distance between belt side and bracket is .25 which works on the 3/8 bolt but rubs the very top but the M12 for the supercharger needs an additional .150 just to slip over the top of the bolt. We are counterboring all the brackets now for clearance -.300. Norm if you want to send back the 2 supercharger brackets we will modify them for you.
The idea here was to use a 3/8 bolt for the 3/8 hole and have clearance and to send out socket head capscrew (smaller head diameter) for the M12 bolts so everything would clear. To make it easier the changes have been made to the brackets so there will be no head scratching.

Thank you Matt, but I think I have a handle on it ,but if I run into a wall I'll take you up on that offer. I am getting a belt this morning if it works out fine,if not I am going to take a little off of the idle pully between the water pump and power steering its tight in there it would give room to change the belt with out taken the pully off.And give clearance between pullys. Again thank you Matt
