Default Need info for 8-rib Procharger conversion

I'm looking into converting my 6-rib setup to an 8-rib. I have the D-1SC kit. Where is everyone getting their setups from? About how much would I be looking at? I'm assuming I'll need the crank pulley, tensioner pulley, blower pulley, and belt. Anything else? Thanks for any info.

I am using a 7.85" ASP crank pulley (8 rib) and a 3.3" ASP 8 rib blower pulley, using a NAPA belt, and stock ATI tensioner, I had a custom bracket support made by Z9's...

To this day I still have not gotten a successful pull on the dyno, belts are done with after one pull...

Making me want to sell it all.....

BOS,

I dunno man...... I kinda have been following what you've done with your car from your posts since the H/C and I'd say just scrap that blower man and go turbo. Personally after reading all the crazy posts in this forum of problems this and that I'm glad I decided to go the NA/N20 route myself.... way easier it seems to me....

That one might work, if ATI is the supplier of all of the stuff...

My setup SHOULD work, there is no flexing, no slipping, but the belt is just walking off the pulley by one rib, and the alingment looks perfect....and the pulleys don't wobble...
