Anyone ever resolve this? My pulley is hitting as well. GM shows the same part for both LS6 and LS1, so it's doubtful that I have the wrong bracket or pulley. I remember using a large washer (something that wouldn't be available at a hardware store) on mine, but that was two years ago. Any help would be appreciated.
