Default can i buy procharger mounting hardware?

This ****** **** NEVER ends!!!

So after drilling and tapping the block i go to finally mock up the head unit and now i dont have the ****** mounting hardware. I need the 3 spacers to space it away from the alternator and the 2 long threaded rods etc. Basically everything to mount the J-bracket. I sent a PM to Bob@EPP just waiting to hear back. In the meantime does anyone know if i can even buy them and for a ballpark price??

Its just threaded rod, rod couplings, and some bolts and washers. Easy to find at the home depot or alike.

thats exactely what i need, thanks! I tried looking for threaded rod but id have to order it. Its 10mm X 1.5 pitch metric. Cant get at any hardware store and if it was it be real cheap *** ****, the last thing i would want to hold on a blower. PLUS the spacers gotta be dead on or belt alignment would suck, also the last thing you want for a blower belt. Thanks for the find though, last thing is thats for the 6 rib pully and mine is 8 rib. Im assuming the spacing is a tad different for the thickness of pullies

Yes, the 8 rib and 6 rib standoffs and threaded rods are different. I'm nearly done with a 6 rib to 8 rib conversion, so I just went through all of that.

Too bad you need 8 rib. I just boxed up all of my 6 rib stuff and it's sitting on the shelf.

I purchased the 8 rib conversion kit from Bob, but he had it shipped to me directly from Procharger. I have all of the paperwork out in the garage that give the sizes, etc. If you want to make your own, I can grab it tomorrow and post the dimensions.

The 8 rib mounting stuff is definitely different. It's longer and pushes the J-bracket a little further out from the block. Not sure if this is relevant to you but the 8 rib crank pulley mounts differently than the 6 rib. I had to buy an ATI damper and then source my own bolts to mount the A/C pulley (from ATI), the ATI damper, and the Procharger 8 rib crank pulley all together. The bolts from both Procharger and ATI are not long enough for cars that want to keep A/C.

i have everything, it all came with the kit its just that my dumbass lost all the hardware. I have all the pullies, brackets etc just no way to mount the ****. And actually i have one spacer off the alternator bracket. I see they list them part by part with p/n's. Wonder if i can just order only what i need. Guyss i wont know till i talk to bob, but worst comes to worse i buy the entire 8 rib kit for $60 and be done with it. To me $60 is well worth it for no headachs!!!

I just upgraded to SDCE 8 rib from a 6 rib setup and used all the same hardware. Its real easy to use shims to space the bracket the extra 1/4'' or so that you need.

I hope i dont have to do that, that would kill the quality of this **** if i need to start shimming stuff out. That never looks good. ****
