Belt drive issues... Ugh... HELP?? So... Here is the issue... I have an LS3 403 stroker... I have a Nutter Racing Drysump system that is mounted on the lower left side. The drive gear for the dry sump is on the outside, past the balancer. The Motor has L92 truck heads... The MTI tensioner is the width of the 6 groove pulley BEHIND the damper. The KWIK mount pits the alternator HALF a width out forward the balancer... I have issues...
Using a Kwik Alternator mount...The LS MTI manual tensioner, and the ATI balancer mounted on the mandrel that is bolting to the crank. Anyone had issues with something like this? This is the LAST bit before I start this damned motor... Ugh...

Can't seem to open the pics.
Without looking at it, maybe the Kwik bracket is for the F-body spacing and not the Corvette spacing?
Does anything line up or is everything misaligned?

AC Nutter set me straight. I have a camaro setup on the mandreal and dry sump. I will need to get the proper spacing which is 13/15ths less on the alternator and 13/15s more for the manual tensioner.
