Took the car to G-Force in Pearland to have Mike tune the car. I was rushing and there were a few things I didnt get to finish in time or forgot to do. The guys have been cool about letting me work on my car up there and finish it.


While looking over the setup they advised I didnt have much belt wrap around the balancer and that this would create belt slip.








Marvin @ gforce suggested adding this idler bracket off a zl1 camaro to achieve more belt wrap on the balancer. Looks like it is gonna work good.





Today we changed out the belt and I drilled and tapped the waterpump for the steam ports on the head which I completely forgot about and I also installed a battery bracket.

I went to Pops today and bought some Methanol. I almost went by G-Force just to talk to Mike about mine getting a fresh tune. Took the wife to a restaurant instead. Wish I had now so I could have checked out that routing and mounting you did.

Look forward to seeing the conclusion (like we ever really finish)!

Build looks great ! Just a quick question why did you wana use the blower belt to run the alt as well how come you didn't use the 4 rib setup from back of your crank pully. Wouldn't you be able to get blower belt tighter if it wasn't routed threw everything.
