The steel bracket or that bracket reinforcement that I posted pics of...........
My aluminum one didn't flex at all after that puppy.......the flexing will cause that belt to go easily.......

Neal get to work
Check the appearance section for how much it will cost me for the dent.
Clint, Bos has a link on the previous page(first post or top post) for his support bracket. I talked to Z8's(good guy who made his bracket) and he said that he is working on a bracket, the hold up is the different length standoffs that the ATI kit use for the 6speed and auto, throw some washers in the mix and everything get even more complicated to make a support bracket. If he would make me one like bos has I could figure out the rest......I think

I had Chris & Kurt Sikora do it for me, I will talk to him to see how much it will be to reproduce one......

They are in there under the 6.0L 372 pic section, the pics I took of it were when I was trying to sell the kit, I was focused on getting the pic of the blower instead of the support, but you can get the idea.........

Got an update from lee by the way........I guess he doesn't have any solution yet, mine are shipping tomorrow.........
5/16 "pins" and I ordered an extra belt just incase we throw it, but I don't think we will with the magic touch of the Sikora bros..........
250ftlbs sound good for the TQ level on the crank pulley with a whole lot of locktite?

Mine hasn't budged either(200ft lbs red locktite), should be on the dyno monday if all works out right.
With the Sikora's putting them on, maybe they will find a better solution to the tensioner pulley and spacing them out correctly. Definately keep me informed with pics of everything they do, if they do something different than I did.
Start a new post? Hell no this one still has room for your set up. No need to start 2

i need to stick with the 8 rib for a little bit more, then i'm definatly going with the cog setup.
i just need to get my truck running so i can finish up my camaro. i'm going to try a new combo so i wave to stick with the 8 rib setup to see what size pulleys i have to go with, then go to a cog setup from there.

Hi Bos and Kyle, I was going to hit the dyno today. But the car doesn't feel right...don't know how to explain it. Feels like something is loose, like the exhaust or something but there is nothing hitting anywhere or something in the driveline. Feels like something is out of balance(about the best way I can describe it) I will be checking my flexplate/converter bolts to see if one is missing. I also need to check my intake, I might have a small vacuum leak there. I want the car to be tip top before I hit the dyno with the boost it was pushing out the other day. Don't want to blow it up lol.
I need to take it to a local shop(Solid Technology) so Sean over there can check on my tuning to see if any red flags come up. Other than that, the cogs seem to be doing fine. I will be dynoing it this week or next monday for sure though.
