Default Procharger input shaft end play?

I've had a problem recently to where under hard accelleration my blower pulley wants to kiss the alternator pulley. I'm prettty sure this is what caused me to snap a blower belt recently. So I figured while installing a new belt I'd remove one of the spacers under the blower pulley to maybe give it a little more clearance. I was using a couple heel bars to remove the pulley and noticed the shaft would move in and out quite a bit. So put a dial indicator on it to check and see how much quite a bit is. Looks to be about .082". Does this seem right? Seems like alot to me.

Just got off the horn with procharger. They said a wavy spring controls endplay. Said it was normal. I'm thinkin if the bracket flexes @ all it could cause it to use this .082". Guess I need to factor this in while making adjustments.
