Default Tensioner Relocation

Hoping someone can help so I can button this up…



looking to finish mounting my procharger. Like the look of it up top and can get all pulleys to line up minus the tensioner.

Any ideas as to where else to put it? Only other place I’ve seen is down where my alternator is or removing power steering and putting it there.

Im going for drag car with some luxuries. So I’d prefer to keep power steering.

thanks in advance!
Cody

Must not be the kit designed for the fbody (appears that what you have) and is more trying to retrofit

Mine mounted just fine down low drivers side. Retained all accessories.

Also the procharger kits for fbody the blower is mounted with the pulley FACING the firewall and not the radiator support like yours.

Where did you mount it low on the drivers side?

Yeah the bracket is a universal which works perfect because my procharger is standard not reverse.

I am absolutely retrofitting and doing some fabricating to make it work.
