They want your friend for what?

Also, if you're broke, FI is wrong for you.

Not to be a dick, but just an observation: If he can't get around, why does he need a supercharger?

Sorry if I came off like an ***, this just doesn't make sense....

If you have a local industrial supply co, try them. We have a store called "Berry Bearing", they sell the BIG fan belts (for cooling towers on stores), ball bearings, etc. They can usually get any gasket or whatever you need. We got new bearings for my buddies weiand blower there, much cheaper than holley.

Do you have the specs on it? Like size, thickness, etc?

Just went through this. Somebody I think may have to many zeros. It costed me like 100.00 and 35.00 return shipping. This was to have the shaft seals replaced and full inspection.... I would call them yourself. It took about 2.5 weeks from the time I shipped to when I got it back...
