Default SDCE alignment

Hey guys > I have attached a pic that shows how my alignment looks from under my car. The 90mm pulley is aligned in the center of the blower pulley and is not the same with the crank pulley, it is just a hair (or 2) to the left. The crank pulley and the blower pulley are near perfect from end to end. Should I shim the 90mm pulley? Does any one have pics or a discription of where their 90mm pulley position? The belt is slipping from under the 90mm pulley. I wish the SDCE set up had a wider 90mm pulley! That would make like a lot easier > but maybe you all can help to make my life easier by helping to solve my misunderstanding of this alignment issue.Align pic

The bracket, I have no spacer on that on mine, I do have a spacer on the blower pulley, I have the three thick spacers and one thin on each stand off, which makes for a total of 4, each setup is going to be different though
